  • Some viewers were frustrated, but others praised him for not being greedy 

Who Wants To Be A Millionaire viewers were left 'screaming at their TVs' after a contestant walked away from an 'easy' £1million question last night.  

Davyth Fear, from Caernarfon, Wales, flew through the questions - securing an impressive £500,000 with his phone-a-friend lifeline still available.

But the retired geography teacher - whose episode first aired in September 2019 - was stumped when reaching the final round by a question dubbed as 'easy' by fans of the quiz show.

'Which of these people was born the same year as Queen Elizabeth II?' host Jeremy Clarkson asked, before presenting Davyth with the options: 'Audrey Hepburn, Judy Garland, Julie Andrews and Marilyn Monroe.' 

Having thought the correct answer was Audrey Hepburn before ringing a friend who claimed it to be Judy Garland, Davyth decided not to risk it and walked away with half a million.

Davyth won the £500,000 after using his second to last lifeline and asking the audience for help with the penultimate question.

'Which of these condiments is the oldest, having been established since 1814 as stated on its label?' he was asked, with the options being: 'HP Sauce, Heinz Tomato Ketchup, Colman's Mustard and Hellman's Mayonnaise.' 

With 61 per cent voting for Colman’s Mustard, Davyth opted for the condiment despite being torn between the audience's answer and HP Sauce.

Thankfully, he stuck with the audience who proved to be right -  making Davyth £500,000 richer.
