Later on in the show, Alison and Dermot caught up with Mary and Josie to see how they were getting on.

Josie, out of her phone-box costume now, asked Mary to introduce herself, as well as tell the viewers what she’d spend the potential £1,000 on.

Mary explained that she’s 74 and works for the community.

“And if I win,” she said, before revealing a missing tooth.

“I’ll have that replaced,” she said.
