However, Lee Mack, 56, got on the wrong side of the audience when he interviewed one contestant.
Diane Moorland was hoping to get into The 1% Club and win a share of the jackpot prize at the end of the show.
However, she unfortunately got a question wrong before the cameras turned to her.
Lee asked her to reflect on her aspirations for the prize pot, and she shocked the studio audience with her response.

The contestant told the star host that she wanted to potentially use the tens of thousands of pounds to get a nose job.
He appeared shocked by her answer at first, when he told her that she didn't need to get any work done.
The contestant seemed to insist that she just didn't like the shape of the facial organ saying, "I've never liked it."
This is when Lee shocked those present with his savage remark about her personal appearance.
