The Chase viewers brand ITV show a ‘joke’ and rage the final is ‘rigged’ with ‘easy questions a kid could answer’
FANS of The Chase have been left unhappy with the recent episode and have suggested the show was ‘rigged’ in order for the Chaser to win.
Viewers turning into the latest episode of the ITV quizzing hit were left more than impressed with the team of players who managed to show off their expert quiz knowledge.
Guided by Bradley Walsh, all four members of the day’s team were able to make it through their cash builder and get back to the desk ready to partake in the final round.
Despite trying his best, Mark Labbett also known as The Beast, failed to stop any of them in their individual one-on-one rounds.
Not only did all four contestants sail through, they managed to bring an eye-watering £100,000 to play for.
Joann was on top form after she played for an astounding £91,000 on the programme.
However, with only 18 steps created during the final stage, it was not enough to stop The Beast powering through and swiping all the money.
Having got just one question wrong, some fans felt that the round was unfair as they suggested he was offered up ‘easier’ questions in a bid to stop the team taking home the cash.
Unhappy The Chase viewers took to X – formerly Twitter – to have their say on Mark’s win.
One wrote: “Why do the chasers get easier questions??? #thechase.”
Another echoed: “When TV bosses decide that’s just too much money for anyone to win. #TheChase #fixed.”
As a third suggested that children would have been able to answer Mark’s questions as they penned: “The Chase is a joke. Professional quizzers getting asked the most ridiculous questions that [my] kids could guess. #thechase.” [sic]
A fourth raged: “#thechase is a complete fix when there is big money.”
Whilst someone else said: “Strange how the Chasers questions were so much easier when there’s 100 grand at stake #TheChase.”
The team were left consoling one another when their dreams of winning big were left shattered and they walked away from the programme with nothing.
The Chase airs weekdays at 5pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
