The newest episode of The Wheel had an emotional moment that left Jonathan Ross in tears. The popular BBC game show, hosted by Michael McIntyre, returned for a new series on Saturday night with a star-studded lineup including Jonathan himself, as well as Joanne McNally, Gethin Jones, and Loose Women's Judi Love.
During the show, Jonathan, who was testing his knowledge on "toys," ended up helping contestant Hala with his expertise on The Beatles. Hala, a mother of two, shared that her plans for the prize money were to finally have the wedding she had always dreamed of. Due to a health battle, she had been unable to walk down the aisle before, and the money would be life-changing for her.
Hala opened up about her rare neurological condition and how it had left her unable to walk 10 years ago. She tearfully explained that she was now out of the wheelchair and walking, and she was grateful for everything in her life. She also shared that she and her husband had gotten married while she was in the hospital, but she wanted to have another big day and walk down the aisle.
When the question of who the "usual bass guitarist" of The Beatles was came up, Jonathan confidently shouted, "Paul McCartney! 100%!" Hala was in tears as she recalled the time she had visited Paul's house and he had let her play his bass guitar. She was certain of the answer, and viewers could see the emotion in Jonathan's eyes as he made the declaration.
Hala didn't get the answer right on her first try, but she had one last chance to walk away with a whopping £21,500. Michael encouraged her, saying, "Please, let's win this show for you." And with Jonathan's help, she did just that. She gave her final answer and broke down in tears, overwhelmed by the opportunity to change her life and help others who had helped her in the past.
Jonathan couldn't hold back his emotions either and was seen wiping away tears as Hala won the big sum. He told her, "I'm so pleased for you, and I'll tell Paul McCartney as well." The viewers at home were also emotional, with many taking to social media to share their thoughts and well-wishes for Hala.
