The judge appears on the programme alongside host , hoping to raise money for his chosen charity, The Sick Children’s Trust.
Anton, 58, breezes through the initial rounds but stumbles on a question about dance and musicals, risking thousands of pounds for his charity.
Jeremy, 64, told : “When that cropped up, I thought well ‘this was tailor made for you’ and then it wasn’t. It’s a bit like me not knowing a Nico Rosberg question.”
An insider revealed that what transpired during and after the £32,000 question was unprecedented in the celebrity version of the series.

The source told the publication: “Anton does something we have never seen before on the show and high stakes are involved. He seemed shocked at the end of his game and the studio audience were too.”
Fans will need to watch the episode to see exactly what unfolds.
Jeremy introduces Anton to the show by joking that he was “known for being paired with older celebrities who couldn’t dance, so I’ll be right at home with me”.
When quizzed if he’d return the favour by gracing the Strictly dance floor, the former Top Gear presenter declared: “No. I loathe dancing, I truly loathe dancing. I have danced.
“But I will only dance to ‘Modern Love’ by David Bowie and only if I’ve had every single drop of alcohol in a place! So, it’s not actually dancing, it’s mostly not falling over is all I’m actually doing. People think I’m dancing but it isn’t, it’s just me trying to stay up!”

Last week, the Clarkson’s Farm star was left utterly stunned following .
The 67-year-old disclosed his intention to donate any winnings to Mind, the mental health charity he has supported since 2011.
The broadcaster managed to win a whopping £250,000 on the ITV game show, once fronted by Chris Tarrant.
Sir Stephe, also known for his acting and comedy, expressed his “delight” over the win while host Jeremy was left gobsmacked over the incredible achievement.
He said: “The biggest celebrity win since I started [on] this show”, dubbing it a “whopping win”, after Sir Stephen chose to pocket the £250,000 rather than risk it all.
