The Chase returned to our screens this afternoon for the latest throwback instalment of the popular ITV quiz show.
Host Bradley Walsh welcomed a team of four contestants to the show this afternoon.
The cheeky presenter was eager to see them get through to the final with some money in-hand.
Anne “The Governess” Hegerty was in the hot seat on Friday trying to prevent the hopefuls from going home with the cash prize.
Duncan, Catherine, Jodie and Andy all took it in turns to take on the cash builder and later went head-to-head with The Governess in an intense round of general knowledge questions.

Another added: “The Jo Brand lookalike gets a comedian question! Yes!”
A third said: “Wasn’t Jo Brand a mental health nurse before becoming whatever she is now? Bit of a coincidence that her doppelganger is one too.”
While a fourth posted: “OMG I thought it was Jo Brand.”
A fifth wrote: “What was Jo Brand just doing on The Chase?”
