Fans of Tipping Point were left feeling infuriated by a contestant who frequently made comments towards the other players whilst they attempted to beat the machine.

Contestants Charlotte, Andy, Max and Jean joined host Ben Shephard to see if they had what it takes to win the jackpot prize from the ITV game show.

However, viewers were distracted by Charlotte as she began to talk over her opponents as they played the game.

Charlotte, who wore a brown floral patterned dress with black tights and styled her blonde hair over her shoulders, could be heard in the background whilst players eagerly awaited their score.

Her commentary comprised mostly of shocked noises, along with an occasional "Go on!", "Woah" and "Well done".

Fans on Twitter couldn't believe that she was praising her competitors as they all scored higher than she managed.

One annoyed viewer wrote: "Shut up if it’s not your go, I don’t need to hear your commentary on everyone else’s drops."

Another said: "Charlotte really thinks she’s something," while one fan tweeted: "Is it just me that hates Charlotte?"

"The point of the game is to get more counters than the others, so why the excitement, Charlotte?" questioned another irritated viewer.

Her questionable tac-tics divided fans further as she decided to take an unusual risk.

The contestant decided to take the plunge and release her last counter into a new drop zone, a move that ended in disaster as the counters rode on top.

Presenter Ben also stole her last counter to add to the penalty pot after she incorrectly answered "tiger" when asked: "What big cat can be seen on the logo of French car manufacturer Peugeot?"
