I was on The Chase - AMA

[bubblicious3]

Was on last week. Anyone interested in what it was like?!

Did you win?

Which chaser did you have?

The Chase is up there with my favourite TV shows. Good on you for going on. The head to head questions often seem so random - some very guessable, some very easy and some where you'd have no hope without knowing some very specific stuff. I think I would come unstuck at that point - I'd rather the quick-fire questions!

What's your view on the vitriol on Twitter for people who take the low offer? It drives me mad. A 'bum on seat' has a lot of value in the final chase, and the low offer is very often the best thing to do.
I have less time for people who score low and then DON'T take a low offer, purely on pride - the difference per head is generally not that much.

How long did it take to record? Do you have breaks between contestants?

Is Bradley Walsh as nice as he seems?

I'm really hoping that he is! I love him and would be so disappointed if OP comes back to say that he's a git in real life.

I’m another that wants to know about Bradley…

I have no shame.

(I had such a silly thing about Ronnie Brooks on Law and Order that it overlapped…)

Did you have a strategy before you went on about if you would take the low/high offer?

did anyone take the low offer and how much did you hate them?

I love the Chase. What was your day like? Did you spend much time with the other people in your team before you wnt on TV? What are the chasers really like? Do you get a brain fart when they ask the questions?

Did you have a strategy before going on, and did you stick to it? I always think I'd go with the high offer, but in the heat of the moment I'd probably cave.

How long does it take to film 1 episode? Was Bradders funny?

Do the contestants get to spend a lot of time with each other?

Is it a long day when you're recording? Do you get regular breaks? How many episodes do they film in one day?

@iwonttaketheeasyroad

Got there at 7am (they put us up the night before) and were done by about 1?

@CornishGem1975

Yes he was - friendly and professional

I always knew I wouldn't go low. I wish I had gone high though!

@mumsiedarlingrevolta

No 🤣🤣

Love the chase- recently got directed to onequestionshootout site which has lots of facts and stats

Do you really not know which chaser you have until they appear in the first round? Don’t you see them backstage before?

It was a fun but nerve wracking day. We met as a team straight away and had some practice goes (very informally). Then wardrobe checked out clothes, we had to come with hair and make up done (Covid) which I was a bit worried about. The other team members were lovely

Had no idea. Apparently Brad didn't know either. Due to Covid (was filmed in lockdown) we were all in sort of marquees.

No breaks at all, apart froM when the adjudicator checked things.
