Viewers of The 1% Club were puzzled by a question in the latest episode, sparking claims of an error.

Lee Mack returned to host another session of the hit quiz show The 1% Club, which has gripped audiences all week. However, this time, a particular question threw viewers into confusion, inciting some to believe the given answer was incorrect.

The baffling question posed by Lee Mack concerned the identification of six symbols that maintain their order whether read from left to right or vice versa. Out of five potential answers, ‘C’ was declared correct.

The audience’s confusion over the response turned to social media, with comments expressing bewilderment and skepticism regarding ‘C’ being the right answer, with many firmly asserting it should be ‘A’.

One wrote: “Baffled! I didn’t understand this one at all,” with another adding: “Can someone please explain how it’s C?” as another said: “I said A and I still think A. I don’t understand how it’s not.”

Discussions spurred on by the contentious choice included one viewer stating, “This is a trick question, A or C could be correct depending on the definition of right to left used,” while another simply sought clarification: “I thought it was A. C isn’t in the same order. Explain, please, someone?”

One helpful fan attempted to demystify the conundrum by explaining: “Because it’s how you read it. I thought it was A, too, but it starts as a Closed bracket, whereas C starts the same as the end. I hope that explains it.”

One viewer added: “It’s not about being mirrored; it’s about what symbol is what. So A would be (from L-R): left bracket, right bracket, left bracket etc, but R-L it would be; right bracket, left bracket etc. which is difference. Whereas C is left arrow-right arrow-right arrow etc from both ends!” Meanwhile, another explained: “It is.. first one is pointing left, then 4 in the middle are pointing right, then last one is pointing left. Same applies if you start from the other side and go backwards.”

During tonight’s thrilling instalment of the quiz show, a fortunate group of contestants walked away with a share of £97,000 as they nailed the final question. The host, Lee, couldnt hide his excitement for the four winners, while tragically two competitors missed out on the jackpot by tripping up over the tricky 1 percent question.
