When the presenter revealed that the answer was of course ‘out of breath’ she said: “Oh I said breathless but I didn’t say out of breath!”;

In the round she also struggled to answer another riddle which represented the following phrase; ‘hit the road.’

I’m so frustrated. But look, £10,000 for a charity is so important. But I’m so frustrated
