The 1% Club contestant breaks silence after cheating accusations and reveals what really happened


A contestant on BBC's The 1% Club has hit back after being accused of cheating, with viewers claiming he 'gave the answer away' in a bid to help his wife win the jackpot

During their round, Jason was asked: "To which body part can you add one letter at the start to make it the word for the job it does," with the answer being "ear" for "hear". However, some viewers claimed that Jason purposely gave away the answer to his wife by rubbing his ear lobes, as clips of the moment began to circulate the internet. Launched in 2022, focusing on "logic and common sense," the show has been challenging contestants with questions that only one percent of Brits can answer correctly, offering a tantalising prize pot of up to £100,000.
