Helen Whitelaw, a woman who lost her speech after developing motor neurone disease (MND), has had her voice reconstructed using sounds from her appearance on Tipping Point.
Audio from Whitelaw’s episode of Tipping Point was used by engineers to build her voice into a computer aid. She thanked them for “giving me back my voice”.
Whitelaw, who is now 76, appeared on the ITV game show in 2019, winning almost £3,000.
Her daughter Gillian Scott said it was “just the best” to be able to hear her mother’s voice again.
