The 1% Club is a British game show that has aired on ITV since 2022, and is hosted by Lee Mack. The show is styled as an IQ test and the questions are not based on general knowledge, like many shows, but on "logic and common sense".
All questions used during the game are taken from a set that have been put to members of the general public prior to the show. The questions are classified by the percentage of participants who answered correctly; those with lower percentages are considered to be more difficult.
In the following set of questions, as you are not limited to 30 seconds per question, you have forfeited your pass. Additionally, you are not told whether each answer is correct or incorrect, though a correct set of co-ordinates in the checker confirms you have answered all 15 questions correctly.
The questions below start with the easiest which 90% of the general public answered correctly and end with the 1% question where only one percent of the general public were correct. The easier questions are multiple choice whilst the more difficult ones do not offer any options.
