The Weakest Link fans have been left in hysterics after Helen Flanagan gave a hilarious answer to a simple question

The Weakest Link fans have been left in hysterics after Helen Flanagan gave a hilarious answer to a simple question.

The former Coronation Street star, 33, appeared on the celebrity quiz show on Saturday night alongside fellow stars Kaye Adams, JB Gill, Adam Pearson, Toyah Willcox, Davood Ghadami and Ivo Graham.

Unfortunately, Helen’s nerves seemed to be getting to her and she didn’t get off to a good start with several wrong answers.

Host Romesh Ranganathan then asked her: ‘In geology, the White Cliffs of Dover are mainly made of what substance – chalk or cheese?’

Helen hesitated and then replied, ‘Cheese?’ before Romesh told her, the correct answer was chalk.

The actress later explained that she had thought Dover was in Cornwall and then automatically thought of cheese.

Viewers at home couldn’t help but crack up over the comical response and took to social media to share their reactions.

One wrote: ‘Just spat out my coffee’, while another added: ‘CHEESE! BLOODY CHEESE! I AM DYING!!!!’

A third person said: Saw this live as it happened and couldn’t believe my ears’, while a fourth echoed: ‘White cliffs of Dover made of cheese? F@cking cheese?’

Another joked: ‘I’m off to the White Cliffs of Dover with my cheese knife and some crackers #WeakestLink …… trying to find them on my map of Cornwall.’

And a sixth wrote: ‘Breaking news: Helen Flanagan (former Corrie actress) thinks the White Cliffs of Dover are made of cheese. No, really, she just told us.’

Other fans took the opportunity to poke fun at the response, showing off their best cheese jokes and puns.

One tweeted: ‘Cheese who’s nervous’, while another said: ‘They’ll be blue cheese over, the white cliffs of Dover’.

A third guessed: ‘Wallace and Gromit fan of course’, while another echoed: ‘The moon is made of cheese too’.

Another joked: ‘But has anyone actually checked the rocks recently. We’re all going to look a little silly if she’s right. Just saying.’

And a sixth person cleverly wrote: ‘What are you talking about? I thought that was a good answer from Edam’, while a seventh chimed in: ‘Not sure about the white cliffs of Dover these days, too much falling De Brie’.

Unfortunately, it didn’t get much better for Helen as she was unable to guess the name in music when three or more notes are played at the same time, which is a chord.

She also passed on the question asking what is the word for the steam that comes from water when it reaches 100 degrees Celsius, not knowing that it is steam.

Her fellow contestants responded by unanimously voting her off as the weakest link, but Helen left with a smile and admitted she was ‘out of my depth’.

After her exit, she said: ‘I was very shocked to be named the weakest link. It’s quite scary, the pressure and you have to think quickly.’

She added: ‘I’ve had fun, I wanted to stay longer. I actually tried but I was out of my depth.

‘Do you know what it was? It was pressure. To be fair, I think I got really tough questions. All I heard was Dover and I thought, Dover, Cornwall that sort of thing, Cornish, so I just went “cheese”.’
