Jeremy Clarkson slams Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? contestant for making a ‘mess’ by using his lifelines too early on and going home with £16,000 – but could YOU answer the questions without help?

  • Tom Young, from Manchester, was first player to appear on last night’s show
  • Violinist used all of his lifelines early on, with first being on the £500 question  
  • Was asked him to name famous battle which was depicted on Bayeux Tapestry
  • He was given the answers of A: Hastings B: Waterloo C: Somme D: Agincourt 

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? viewers were left in hysterics after Jeremy Clarkson brutally told a contestant ‘he came, saw and made a mess’ after he used all of his lifelines very on.   

Tom Rowan-Young, a violinist, from Manchester, started off well by answering the Fastest Finger time in just 4.25 seconds, before getting four questions in a row correct when he took to the hot seat.

But things quickly took a downwards turn when the fifth question asked him to name the famous battle which was depicted on the Bayeux Tapestry – and he relied on host Jeremy’s help to get him to the £1, 000 mark.

Despite going on to miraculously win £16, 000, those who tuned in were left exhausted by Tom’s efforts.

‘This bloke is so annoying…we don’t need your life story just the answer to the question!’ wrote one, while a second penned: ‘Omg this is painful.’

It didn’t take long for things to go from bad to worse when Tom was left stumped by question number seven on Andy Warhol and relied on both his 50/50 and phone a friend to get him to £8, 000.

After struggling to make it that far without the help of others, Tom decided to set his safety net at £16,000, but yet again needed to use his second phone a friend for the eighth question.

Jeremy then decided to cut to a break and when viewers came back, the presenter joked: ‘We are here and have been for some time with Tom. He’s on £16,000 but has no lifelines remaining though.’

Speaking to Tom, he continued: ‘But £16,000 is your safety net so you have a free shot at £32,000. Shall we have a look at the question?

Tom used his final lifeline on the £16, 000 question: What name is given to the structure in a plant cell where photosynthesis takes place? (pictured)

A: Borgen

‘The Danish politician Birgitte Cyborg is the central character of which Nordic TV series? Borgen, Wallander, The Bridge or The Killing.’

Tom went on to admit that he had only heard of two of the programmes and had never heard of that character.   

He explained: ‘Pointless me trying to talk through logic because there won’t be any. I’ve got nothing else to go on and nothing to lose so I think Wallander final answer.’

An exhausted Jeremy bluntly replied: ‘I won’t take up any more of your time. That’s wrong.

‘It was in fact Borgen. Just in case you are interested at home, Borgen is the nickname for Christiansborg Palace.

‘Wallander was the police inspector, was it played by Kenneth Branagh? The Bridge was fantastic and so is The Tunnel, the spin-off from it. The Killing was the Danish detective Sarah Lund.’

Tom decided to use a 50/50 and phone a friend – despite saying that he believed he knew the answer (pictured)

Taking to the comments section, one person penned: ‘You can tell when Jeremy doesn’t like someone’ (pictured) 

The host then turned to Tom and said: ‘No matter you came, you saw, you made a mess of it. Nevertheless, you are leaving with £16,000.’  

And many who tuned in found the witty remark hilarious – and were quick to take to Twitter to offer their say. 

‘You can tell when Jeremy doesn’t like someone,’ wrote one, while a second commented: ‘My god, this guy is awful. @JeremyClarkson on top form as always though!!’

A third added: ‘Tom is very hard to watch,’ while a fourth wrote: ‘This guy on Millionaire is taking way too long for someone on £3, 000 ffs. You can tell Jeremy hates him.’ 

Jeremy decided to cut to a break and when viewers came back, the presenter joked: ‘We are here and have been for some time with Tom. He’s on £16,000 but has no lifelines remaining though.’ Pictured, the £32, 000 question
