Tipping Point fans have dubbed a player in today's show (August 27) a "plonker" after he made a big error over Madrid's location.

Friday's episode of the ITV quiz series saw host Ben Shephard, 46, welcome contestants Mark, Holly, Adam and Denise to the game.

While getting off to a knowledgeable start, the group's intelligence was tested when Adam made a grave blunder while answering a relatively simple question about an Italian capital city.

Ben asked: "Which Italian capital city is said to have been built on seven hills?"

When eventually prompted by Ben to answer after several moments of hesitation, Adam guessed: "Madrid."

Hwever, Ben soon informed him the answer was in fact "Rome" as Madrid is in fact a Spanish city, with viewers cringing at Adam's slip up.

One viewer commented: "Rome muppet."

Another wrote: "Rome FFS!"

A third sarcastic viewer replied: "Madrid’s moved to Italy now?!"

A fourth said: "Again how many capitals does Italy have?"

Another added: "I bet Adam feels like a right plonker!"
