“Boris to be the new Chaser,” another concluded.

Monday’s episode of The Chase aired at a later time due to a huge scheduling shift.

A second said: “Hang on…. Where’s #TheChase? Why is boring old #TippingPoint on instead?”

While someone else weighed in: “It might be late, but #TheChase is starting now.”
