A father and son duo who walked away from Limitless Win with an incredible jackpot were left 'too emotional to speak' after realising what they'd done.

On the latest episode of the game show hosted by Ant and Dec, we saw David and his 40-year-old son Mark competing to try and win a truly astounding amount of money.

The family team said they wanted to win some money for their family, with David explaining that he previously had cancer on his vocal chords and Mark saying he was visually impaired.

In the end, the duo decided to cash out with £250,000, giving father and son an emotional reaction to winning the 'life changing' sum as the audience applauded their achievement.

Dec tried to ask David to sum up his win, but the 67-year-old could barely speak as he hugged his son in joy, saying: "I think my face says it all, I'm just too emotional, I'm sorry, and to do it with this fella, oh man."

He then hugged his son, which got another positive reaction from the crowd who'd really taken to David and Mark.

Mark said he was an 'absolute mess', which is a pretty fair response when you've just won £250,000.

Limitless Win later featured a moment where the father and son duo rang home so Mark could tell his mum about the win as she called them 'my clever boys'.

As for what they plan to do with the money, Mark said it would be 'a dream' to move to Brighton and David wants to go travelling with his wife.

Whether by car or campervan, the dad wants to hit the road and see some more of the world.

They were both overcome with emotion at winning the money.

Some of the biggest game show jackpots we've ever seen have come thanks to Limitless Win.

A couple on the show recently walked away with £1 million, though some of those watching along at home have grumbled that they think the questions are quite easy.

Of course the questions are only easy if you know the answer and the more contestants push their luck, the bigger the chance they'll walk away without anything.

The further away you are from the right answers, the sooner Limitless Win contestants will be going out, so walking away with £250,000 is a very good showing.

Despite the limitless nature of the show, the biggest jackpot won on British TV was on a different Ant and Dec hosted show, Red or Black.

Back in 2012 one Graham Fletcher won a whopping £1.5 million by betting it all on black.
