Stephen Mulhern makes unprecedented blunder on ITV's Catchphrase
The show, which asks contestants to identify a well-known phrase or idiom based on a short animated clip, featured Jeremy Vine, Charlie Hedges and comedian Luke Kempner on the latest episode.
At one point, a clip was shown depicting pastries with escalating price tags, which are then shown bursting through the roof of the building.
Narrating the clip in an effort to encourage answers, Mulhern remarked: 'Literally, the prices have gone through the roof!'
However, he quickly realised that he had given away the answer in its entirety.
'Sorry, what? Was that the answer?' said Jeremy Vine, after buzzing in.
😱 @StephenMulhern makes a HUGE mistake - for the first time in 10 years! pic.twitter.com/mujJmlTUk6

"I have never in my life done that. In 10 years!" Mulhern said, with his head in his hands.
'I was just thinking 'this is a very tricky one, if it's not that!' added Kempner, who then joked that Mulhern had taken his prize money tally up to £200.
Vine remarked that the incident represented 'a bit of Catchphrase history'.
Catchphrase first began in 1986 and was hosted by Irish comedian Roy Walker. He was succeeded by Nick Weir in 2000, and Mark Curry in 2002 before the series was cancelled that year.
Mulhern began hosting the revival in 2012, which initially involved members of the public as contestants. Since 2018, the programme has featured celebrity contestants, who compete to win money for charity.
Celebrity Catchphrase was recently renewed for an 11th series on ITV.
ITV commissioner Gemma John-Lewis said: 'We're delighted to announce a further series of the much-loved family favourite, Celebrity Catchphrase.
'The only show where you say what you see, the hugely popular series continues to win legions of fans and with Stephen's infectious and playful humour it's a firm favourite with our viewers.'

Steve Coogan explains why Keir Starmer has made him ‘admire' Margaret Thatcher
Steve Coogan has explained why Keir Starmer makes him 'admire' Margaret Thatcher. The actor and writer is a dyed-in-the-wool Labour supporter and has often used his bumbling comedy creation Alan Partridge – a longstanding Tory – to poke fun at the party's political rivals. However, Coogan, whose credits include cult comedy series The Trip and Jimmy Savile drama The Reckoning, is not a fan of the UK prime minister and, one year into Starmer's time in office, Coogan remains unconvinced by his performance. When asked about his opinions on the current state of Labour, Coogan said that Starmer lacks a purpose and that 'everything with him is just political'. 'I don't think he has any ideology,' Coogan told the i. 'I think every decision he makes is, 'What is the most politically expedient thing to say and think?'' Coogan contrasted Starmer's qualities with those of Thatcher, the controversial Conservative politician who was prime minister from 1979 to 1990. 'It makes me admire – which I never thought I'd say – Margaret Thatcher for at least having an ideology and a point of view,' he continued. 'And a vision. I didn't agree with it, but at least she had one.' Coogan added: '[Starmer] doesn't have one. So I am not an ally.' The Philomena star previously told LBC: 'I'm a Labour supporter, but I do despair of the risk free, be all things to all men, approach of Keir Starmer, which I think is a fool's errand and might work in the short term, but eventually bites you on the bum for down the line.' It was recently revealed that Coogan would reunite with Rob Brydon for a new series of The Trip, which will bring the duo to Scandinavia. Across six episodes, directed again by Michael Winterbottom (This England, 24 Hour Party People), Coogan and Brydon will explore the wildest riches of Northern Europe, including sculptural Swedish hotels and remote Norwegian fishing huts. 'I'm delighted that Michael Winterbottom has managed to persuade me at the age of 59 to join Rob, aged 60, to squeeze the last few drops of comedy from a bottle that we both thought was pretty much empty,' Coogan said of the forthcoming series.

Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce Had ‘Private Lunch' During Ohio Date, ‘Source' Claims
and Travis Kelce were recently spotted on a 'private lunch' date in Ohio amid engagement and wedding rumors. According to a source, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end 'grew up in Cleveland Heights' and visited places that are familiar to him with his girlfriend. They had lunch at JoJo's Bar in Chagrin Falls, where two friends accompanied the pop star and her beau. A couple of photos from the restaurant have now gone viral on social media. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce once again gained attention with their lunch date in Ohio on Tuesday, July 1, amid engagement rumors. A user uploaded a few photos on X (formerly Twitter), which features the athlete's back and the singer's side profile. While he wore a striped blue T-shirt, the pop sensation looked gorgeous in a white shirt and pleated skirt with hair styled into a ponytail. According to PEOPLE, John Ponyicky, a manager at JoJo's Bar, said, 'He [Kelce] and Taylor were both really pleasant. They sat at the bar for a bit, but also had a private lunch in a private room.' He confirmed that the couple had 'a wonderful time' at the Ohio establishment. Furthermore, his co-manager, Ryan Schwartz, told WKYC, 'First I was caught of guard. Someone's like, 'Oh my God, Taylor Swift's here.' I'm like, 'No way.'' He mentioned that he sneaked up to confirm if it was the pop icon herself. As she came in with her security detail, Schwartz stated that the restaurant team chose 'to kind of just respect her privacy.' Reportedly, Swift and Kelce entered the venue through a side door. They avoided the main entrance to keep their outing as private as possible. Lately, the singer has been spotted spending quality time with her boyfriend on multiple occasions. She even allegedly stayed in Florida with Kelce during his off-season training ahead of the upcoming NFL season. They were photographed on dinner dates and games. A few days ago, the pair made their red carpet debut at the Tight End University (TEU) summit in Nashville. Their intimate dance videos from the event went viral on the internet. The post Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce Had 'Private Lunch' During Ohio Date, 'Source' Claims appeared first on Reality Tea.
