Tipping Point appearance 'another thing ticked off the bucket list' for East Belfast woman

An East Belfast woman is getting through a long bucket list of things she'd like to achieve in life - with an appearance on a quiz show now marked off.

Naomi Noble, 25, is counting down the nights until her episode on ITV's Tipping Point at the end of the month.

The show, which is presented by TV favourite Ben Sheppard, sees players take on an extraordinary machine to win a cash jackpot.

Speaking to Belfast Live, Naomi said she has already bought prosecco for the evening that her episode will air.

"I have always wanted to do a game show, it has been on my wish list forever," the mum-of-one said.

"I just always loved watching them at home and have always wanted to go on one and try it out for myself.

"Last year I applied and randomly got the call in April that I would be accepted and begin filming in June. I went to Bristol for filming and was there for just over an hour filming, it was such a lovely, welcoming experience.

"Of course I got to meet Ben Sheppard, who was just the loveliest man. He is so down to earth and as nice as you would expect him to be."

Naomi was tight lipped about how she got on while on Tipping Point but said all will be revealed when it airs on Friday, April 22 on ITV.

"It was a brilliant day, I am so buzzing. There was three of us playing and I couldn't have asked for two better players, we just had a brilliant day.

"Obviously at home you'd sit on the sofa and shout out answers at the TV, but when you are there, it is completely different.

"After the show, myself and one of the other guys met up for dinner and drinks and we have actually become really good friends since Tipping Point.

"I do have a bucket list, and would love to do some more game shows, but we will see!"
