Fans have taken to Twitter to complain about the question calling it "sneaky."

One person wrote:: "TFI f****** Friday???!!!!!"

While another said: "Well, *that* was a sneaky b****** of a question."

A third penned: "Wouldn’t of thought about TFI Friday #TippingPoint "

A fourth said: "Not really a connection is it. #tippingpoint "

Having got the question wrong Sham was forced to hand the counter over to fellow contestant John.

Luckily though Sham managed to beat John and made it to the the final to get an attempt at the jackpot counter.

Sham wasn't so lucky with his timing as the counters dropped and seemed to get a fair few "riders" causing no counters to drop.

Fans took to twitter to tell Sham to sort out his timing of his drops.

One fan said: "Jesus Christ. Still not got his timing right #tippingpoint."

Another wrote: ""Sham clearly hasn’t been to Skegness in the amusements with his bag of 2ps #TippingPoint."

A third penned: "Timing is appalling #tippingpoint."

However even though he struggled with timing Sham managed to get the jackpot counter over the edge winning the whopping prize of 10 thousand pounds.

He said: "I'm going to put the money towards a house deposit and spoil my nieces and nephews."

Fans took to twitter to show their surprise that he won.

One person wrote: "Sham surprisingly won #TippingPoint"

Another said: "Hoorah ……I'm off . Well done Sham #tippingpoint See ya all Friday"

While a third penned: "#tippingpoint how the heck did he manage that?"

A fourth tweeted: "Ooh well done Sham! Good contestant #tippingpoint"

And a fifth commented: "#TippingPoint : so nice to see a nice guy like Sham win."

On Tuesday's episode of Tipping Points fans were shocked as the said that they heard a contestant drop the "F-bomb."

Player Darrel's drops failed to land him any money and left his trailing further, and that’s when fans are convinced they heard him say “fu*k
