The Chase, anyone?

We watch the chase every day as part of dd (5)'s evening wind down routine

I think she's a fan of Bradley Walsh's banter and lighthearted hosting style

Do you have it on in evenings? Who's your favourite chaser? Mine is The Beast

He's on today and wiping the contestants out, love him 🥰

We watch everyday too. I love the beast! And Anne but she doesn't seem to be on much anymore unless I missed some episodes 🤔

I hardly see ann and haven't seen darragh in a while

Sometimes I think their rotations are a bit off

Haven't had the chance to watch it as a family in ages.
When we do, we pause and guess the contestants ages (and then later their occupation) and guess who the Chaser will be 🤓
My favourite is Darragh.

I can't help myself saying "they haven't won anything yet" when the team rack up a big pot (usually off the back of one person). I bore myself tbh.

ssd · 19/02/2025 18:06

It was great to see them win today, i wish the lady who went high, hadn't!

I find myself repeating Bradley's sayings, like 'gotta take it on the chin' 🤭🤭

Me too, had to hurt 😭

OP posts:

I missed todays but It always annoys me when someone goes high and then the people left to play take the lower offer (which is usually an unreasonable minus) and still go home with an equal share. Especially when they don't even contribute in the final chase.

Me too, low offer wankers they're called

So many people go low these days though

OP posts:
InALonelyWorld · 19/02/2025 18:31

I always think they should get a percentage took off their share for it.

ssd · 19/02/2025 21:06

That boy today who went low did the right thing though

Darragh today 🥰

He's my fave

Couldn't sleep the other night. Turns out 'challenge' (channel) play the chase ALL NIGHT.

Yep on freeview, this was on a weekend.
I also really like beat the chasers which is a spin off and I watch that on the itv app

I love it so much I was on it recently! Not broadcast yet though…

Omggg how exciting!

Could you share who your chaser was? 👀🤭

MoonWoman69 · 19/02/2025 21:45

I love Darragh, he's not on enough for my liking! Was lovely to see him tonight!
I absolutely hate it when people take the lower offer! Just play for what you've won! Surely the point of going on a gameshow is to win as much as you can?!
I watched one on Challenge the other week, she got 7k and all the others told her to stay with that. She turned back and said I think I'll take the lower offer! Which was a minus sum!!! Makes me really irrationally angry!

My son met the Beast at a pub quiz. He was lovely and let someone take a photo of them together. It really showed how tall Mark is as my son is really tall.

It was Paul. He seemed nice, but we didn’t get to spend any time with him.

Oh that's a surprise, I would've imagined you'd get an autograph

But he does have a debilitating illness, maybe that's why

Still so cool, I like him

ronswansonstache · 19/02/2025 22:04

I've been on it too! My chaser was Paul.

We won and he did come out briefly to say hello and shake our hands. It was a great experience!

MillionaireCaramel · 19/02/2025 22:09

I watch it every day. Try to see how many questions I would get in the cash builder etc.

I don't mind so much when they go low if it's a positive or a small minus is it means they will get through and win, I like to see them winning. But if it's going to take them down a silly amount of money it is annoying.
