The hit ITV gameshow was back on TV screens on Tuesday (April 4) as host Bradley welcomed four new quizzers onto the show looking to bag some serious cash
As fans tuned in for the primetime programme, the former Corrie star introduced contestants Archie, Louis, Charlotte and George before they battled it out to take home the all-important cash prize.

This week the quartet was up against Anne who made sure to bring her A-game against the wise quizzers.
However, minutes into the show starting, viewers watching the show at home quick to point out that the player’s names were the same as the Queen’s great-grandchildren.
Archie is the son of Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle, while George, Charlotte and Louis are the names of Prince William and Kate Middleton.
Taking to Twitter, one person said: “Ooh royal names on The Chase.”
Another joked: “I must say some of the Royal babies have aged fast.
“Bit of a royal touch with these names,” quipped a third viewer.
It did take host Bradley a few seconds to cotton on as he chatted to the contestants.
Anne said: “You haven’t worked out what all these people have in common, have you?”
“Oh have I done it again?” The Larkins star said, before reeling off the names and having a think to himself.
The penny then dropped and Bradley said: “Archie, Louis, Charlotte and George, the kids. Harry’s lad, then Louis, Charlotte and George, William’s kids.”
‘So adorable I may puke,’ Anne quipped back.
Archie, Charlotte and Louis all made it through to the last round with a whooping total of £12,000 and racked up a lead of 17.
But the royal team failed to beat the Chaser as Anne caught up with them with just 30 seconds still left on the clock, causing them to lose their prize money.
