It asked about a Spanish dish. The contestant confidently ruled out tortilla, thinking of the flatbread, and after using Ask The Audience went with their answer - resulting in him going home with nothing, as it was only the £1000 question and tortilla was the correct answer. It was actually asking about an omelette. If even the audience couldn't get it right, then no way should that have been such a low value question. It should've been worth at least £16,000.But then the vote may well have been influenced by him so confidently ruling it out beforehand. Just one of those questions that end up being more subjective in people's knowledge of it than you realise. I knew the answer before the options came up, thought it was very easy and was surprised to see what happened.

Would have been an idea to rerun the Fastest Funger First series a couple of weeks ago instead of Lingo repeats so referencing a long axed series didn't seem so out of date.
