A finalist on The 1% Club lost out on an incredible £93,000 jackpot after a tricky picture question - but can you solve it?
Hosted by Lee Mack, the popular ITV game show challenges players' common sense and logic as opposed to their general knowledge.
Contestants who reach the end tackle the toughest question - which only 1% of the public is expected to get right - in a bid to win a life-changing sum.
In the latest episode, Amena was the only person to qualify for the final round.
Lee asked her this question: 'In the image below, three volumes of a cookery book series are lined up in order, next to each other on a shelf.
'The total thickness of the pages of each volume is 5cm and each cover is 5mm thick.

Amena faced this mind-boggling picture question in a bid to win £93,000 - but could you work it out?
'What is the distance in centimetres between the first page of volume one and the last page of volume three?'
The puzzle showed three books displayed on-screen, while Amena had only 30 seconds to work it out.
Once her time was up, Lee asked the sole remaining player for her answer.
'14.9cm', she replied.
Ultimately, Amena discovered she was incorrect with the right answer turning out to be 7.
Lee clarified: 'When stored upright, the first page of the book is on the right and the last page is on the left.
'So you only need to measure the pages of one book and four covers.'
Taking to X, one viewer penned: 'That was a bl**dy dodgy last question.'
Another added: 'That 1% Q makes no sense whatsoever.'
A third remarked: 'Feel sorry for Amena but she did great to get to 1% question.'
While a fourth said: 'That 1% question was a trick question bang out of order and in bad taste.'
Amena had only 30 seconds to try and solve the puzzle - ending up with an answer of 14.9cm, which was incorrect
The right answer turned out to be 7 - but had you been able to successfully crack the tricky picture puzzle?
Elsewhere, a previous episode's final picture question left fans baffled after the latest episode of the ITV quiz show - thanks to a very hidden detail.
Show viewers were left confused in the comments as the TV show's social media account posted an image of the tricky conundrum over the weekend.
The question read: 'If you take away all the flags that have stars, circles, red crosses, black stripes, and the colour green, which one is left?'
These flags, labelled from A-I, were displayed as: A) Algeria, B) Trinidad and Tobago, C) United Kingdom, D) Scotland, E) Aland in Finland, F) Bangladesh, G) Japan, H) Senegal, and I) Tanzania.
While appearing straightforward, there's only one flag that fulfils the requirements - meaning fans who narrowed it down to two options already got the answer wrong.
However, it didn't stop viewers from arguing that the ambiguous nature of the question's wording could mean multiple flags meet the criteria.
Viewers noted that the question asked for flags that don't feature 'stars, circles, red crosses, black stripes AND the colour green' - so using the word 'and' and not 'or' would mean that all the flags qualify, given none of them have all the listed features.
Replying in the thread on X, formerly Twitter, one show fan penned: 'All of them because none of them have stars, circles, red crosses, black stripes and the colour green...'
Another chimed in: 'None of these flags has stars, circles, red crosses, black stripes and the colour green. In fact, Scotland (D) doesn't have any of those!'
The 1% Club airs on ITV1 and is available to stream on ITVX.
