The 1% Club’s Rollover Week Sees Dozens Ousted as Jackpot Climbs

First episodes have produced mass eliminations on percentage-rated puzzles, including a divisive 10% riddle that has divided viewers over question difficulty.

Overview

  • ITV has shifted The 1% Club to five consecutive weeknight episodes with unclaimed funds rolling over toward a £500,000 top prize.
  • A 50% mirror-letter question knocked out 14 players and added £14,000 to the jackpot, pushing the total to £49,000.
  • A 60% brick-wall counting puzzle eliminated 25 contestants in one round, leaving 70 players still in contention.
  • A 10% word-length riddle prompted divided viewer reactions, with some deeming it too easy and others expressing concern about public reasoning skills.
  • Contestants who reach the final 1% question return for the next episode, giving them a chance to multiply their winnings across the rollover week.
