GLOBE readers have shared their congratulations to a 24-year-old Bebington man who took home £99,000 over the weekend on an ITV quiz show.

On Saturday (April 29) Daniel O’Halloran, who currently lives in Rock Ferry, came face to face with 99 other contestants on The 1% Club which is hosted by comedian Lee Mack.

Questions on the show have nothing to do with remembering quiz trivia, they are all about applying logic, reasoning skills and common sense.

Talking about winning on the show, which was recorded in July last year, Daniel explained to the Globe that he told his family he'd only won £10,000 and kept it a secret that he'd actually gambled and won £99,000.

When he watched the show with them on Saturday, he said they were "going nuts" after he said he would take on the final question.
