ITV presenter Lee Mack forced to apologise as he exposes 1% Club player on air
Lee Mack accidentally revealed the secret of a contestant on The 1% Club while on air.
The comedian, 56, returned for another new episode of the ITV quiz show on Thursday evening (December 12), with 100 players hoping for the chance to answer the 1% question.
While speaking to the contestants in between questions, Lee called out Emma for admitting she would go on Naked Attraction.
"The woman who, off camera, said she would happily go on Naked Attraction," Lee told her fellow contestants.
However, she didn't want this being revealed as she knew her partner wouldn't be best pleased.
"I said that off camera because my partner wouldn't be watching," she told the presenter.
Lee raised his hand to his face as he realised what he had done.

The actor then attempted to introduce Emma again, claiming she would never go on Naked Attraction.
Lee then asked what she would do if she won the jackpot, to which she responded: "I want a gaming mouse because my partner's got me into World of Warcraft."
Emma added: "It's proper sad and nerdy but it's so much fun."
Emma ended up making it through to the 1% question alongside five other players. She, alongside her fellow contestants, decided to play for the full prize pot of £97,000.
The question was: "In the paragraph below, the names of various numbers appear. Answer the following question: Everyone! Pay attention and listen up. Focus in these frightening and lonely thirty seconds. In this whole paragraph, how many times in total is the name of a number written down?"

The answer was revealed to be seven as the number ten featured four times, number one was written twice and the number 30 was also included.
Emma and three of the finalists answered the 1% question correctly, meaning they walked away with £24,250 each.
This concluded the end of four special episodes airing this week, however, the show will be returning soon.
In an announcement on X, the official 1% Club page said: "We've had a blast playing with all our amazing contestants online and at home! Don’t get too excited but we are back with a brand NEW episode on Boxing Day."
