Limitless Win guests 'too emotional to speak' as they win 'life-changing' amount

Ant and Dec's Limitless Win viewers were in tears on Saturday night as a father and son were left "too emotional to speak" after winning a staggering amount of money.

During the latest episode, son Mark, 40, and dad David, 67, took part in the show in a bid to win money for their family. In a VT ahead of the game, David said: "The voice, as you can tell, is slightly hoarse. I had cancer on my vocal cords last year."

Mark added: "I'm visually impaired but it hasn't stopped me enjoying life. Travelling, doing fun things!" After a nail-biting game, the duo decided to cash out on £250,000. The father and son were left overcome with emotion as they shook their heads in disbelief.

Host, Declan Donnelly, said: "£250,000 you're taking away tonight, can you sum it up, David?" to which David was left in tears as he admitted: "I think my face says it all, I'm just too emotional, I'm sorry" as he hugged his also teary son. Mark was asked the same question, to which he admitted: "I'm a mess, I'm an absolute mess", adding it was 'life-changing' money.

Later, it showed the duo ringing Mark's mum and David's wife, where Mark said: "Hi mum, I'm still here, hang on" as he got emotional before adding: "We just won £250,000!" to which Mark's mum exclaimed: "What?! What?! No! Oh, my clever boys!"

Talking in a pre-show interview about what they would do with the winnings, Mark said: "For me, it’s a move to Brighton. That’s a kind of dream for me to be able to move there" while David said: "It would go towards travelling for me and my wife. It just depends how we’d do it, whether it’s in a car or a campervan."
