Tipping Point fans thought they recognised a contestant on Monday as four new players took on the arcade-style machine.
This week's first instalment of the popular ITV game show saw host Ben Shephard welcome the latest contestants to the studio.
They were Ross, a pharmacist from Glasgow, Carole, a retired legal secretary from London, Glenn, a voluntary worker from Middlesborough, and receptionist Becky from Cardiff.
The aim of the game is to answer general knowledge questions correctly to win coins which you can then use on the Tipping Point machine. Contestants then drop the coins into the machine to knock counters off the shelf and potentially win thousands of pounds at the end of the game.

Just minutes into Monday's episode, viewers were distracted. Some thought they had seen Carole's face somewhere before - they thought she looked a lot like Shirley Carter from EastEnders, played by actress Laura Henry.
Taking to Twitter, Grace said: "Refuse to accept that Carole on #TippingPoint is not Shirley from #EastEnders". Will said: "Shirley from EastEnders, knew I recognised her!", and Ralph said: "Is that Shirley off EastEnders?"
