The Chase host Bradley Walsh had to tell a player to ‘stop it’ as the show returned to TV screens this afternoon.
Telly legend Bradley welcomed four new quizzers to the studio to battle it out for the a cash prize and a chance to beat The Chaser. Contestants Jo, Liz, Sheryl and Jack were up against Paul Sinha, aka The Sinnerman, in Tuesday’s episode.
But when it got to Jack’s turn, things turned a bit awkward. He was given a high cash offer of £40,000 but opted to take the lower amount to try and stay in the game and reach the all-important final.
He told Bradley: “I’m a bit of a square, so I’ll go for the £8,000.” Looking a little confused, former Coronation Street star Bradley asked: “Did you say you’re a bit of a square? What’s that got to do with it?”
“I’m a square, just a bit of a loser,” Jack went on to say, before host Bradley cut him off. Having none of it, he told him: “No you’re not all! That’s got to stop immediately Jack!” The encouragement seemed to help as Jack got lucky against the Chaser and managed to bag the £8,000 and a spot in the final.

In the end, all four contestants got through and managed to answer 20 questions correctly, hoping to win a cash pot of £25,000. But Paul was on top form and despite fans saying it was an “all-round top edition of The Chase”, they didn’t manage to beat The Chaser this time round.
Last week, viewers were left seething when one of the contestants chose to ignore his teammate and went on to give an answer at a crucial moment that had already been given by The Chaser during the final.
One fan took to X (formerly Twitter) to share a clip from the programme, captioning it: “You have to see this to believe it.” Other viewers admitted to watching the snippet a few times and “still didn’t believe it”.
In the high-tension moment, presenter Bradley asked Chaser Jenny Ryan “Which confectionary company makes Revels?”. After a brief pause, she responded “Cadbury,” which was the incorrect answer. But it is what one of the contestants did next that left people mortified.
Bradley said: “Stop the clock, that is wrong”, before repeating the question for the two remaining contestants, a man and a woman. The woman said: “I can’t think of another…Mars?” before her teammate whispered: “Cadbury”, seemingly unaware The Chaser had already given that answer.
“She said Cadbury,” the woman said, but the man then turned to Walsh and said: “Cadbury” as the pair’s final answer as the woman looked on, confused. A baffled Walsh pointed to Jenny and said: “She said Cadbury”, as the camera panned to the Chaser. The host then revealed Mars was indeed the correct answer.
