Harry Redknapp, who appeared on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, was not able to take it all and left the show with nothing.
The football manager, 74, answered three questions correctly on the quiz series but crashed out on the £500 pound question.
A source told The Sun: ‘He was clearly shocked and embarrassed at getting the boot so early in the competition — he’d barely been in the hotseat a few minutes.
Mishap: It all proved too much for Harry Redknapp on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire as he left the show without a penny
‘But he was crestfallen mainly because he’d failed to raise any funds and didn’t hesitate to put his hand in his pocket.
‘It was certainly a contrast to when he was on another big ITV show, I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!, which he won.’
Harry did not win any money to support charity but the newspaper reported that he was willing to give cash to charities from his personal pocket.
Harry’s fall marks the first failure of a star to make any money since Jeremy Clarkson became the show’s host in 2018.
