Former boxer Tony Bellew won £64,000 for Alder Hey Children's Hospital on Who Wants to Be A Millionaire? Celebrity Special, despite jokingly calling himself 'stupid' during the show. Bellew aimed to beat his boxing rival David Haye's previous winnings and succeeded in reaching the top prize.
I'm A Celebrity star Tony Bellew triumphed on Who Wants to Be A Millionaire? Celebrity Special on Sunday night, despite self-deprecatingly calling himself "stupid" in front of the audience.
The ex-boxer expressed his determination to host Jeremy Clarkson to outdo his boxing ring rival David Haye's previous £8,000 win. Nevertheless, Tony humorously retorted to the audience, saying: "I've got an excuse for being stupid, I've been punched in the face for 25 years. You lot have got no excuse like that. You can't get away with it. I've got a great excuse, you haven't. I'm just not the brightest, I'm not the sharpest."
Opting not to chance it on the final hurdle, Tony chose to leave with his £64,000 winnings, firmly stating, "Final answer, see you later, I've had enough!"
