Tipping Point host Ben Shephard struggled to hold back the tears as contestant Clive managed to win £20,000 – the biggest jackpot in the show’s history.
The scenes, which were first broadcast in March, still struck a chord with fans as they watched from home on Wednesday evening.
Ben was shocked as Clive became the first player on the programme to tip over a double jackpot token in the final round to win the top prize.
‘I am knocked over. Thank you so much,’ Clive said, totally taken aback by his success.
Ben said: ‘Clive, I have stood in front of this machine over a thousand times. The only time that has happened was when it was on a tray that didn’t get taken.’
Welling up, Ben said: ‘Clive, you’ve done it. I can’t believe you have done it!’
The pair shared a hug, before Ben asked: ‘How does that feel Clive?’
‘Fantastic,’ Clive replied.
The moment had viewers in an equally emotional mood, as they watched the moment play out again.
