The Chase’s Bradley Walsh was left beaming after he bagged some cash – in a show ‘first.’
The hit ITV gameshow was back on TV screens on Friday (June 5) as telly legend Bradley welcomed four new quizzers. As fans tuned in, he introduced contestants Miles, April, Sam and Ross before they battled it out to take home the all-important cash prize.
This week the quartet were up against Mark who made sure to bring his A-game against the wise quizzers. But things took a jaw-dropping turn just minutes into the show airing.

Player Miles was up first and the 48-year-old left Bradley stunned right before his cash-builder when he revealed he worked as a magician. He then showed off his skills as he performed a trick.
The player took a £10 note off the host and somehow transformed it into a £50 note. He then handed it back to Bradley, who was gobsmacked and quipped: “That’s nice.”
Miles joked: “You’ve never seen one of those before have you Brad,” to which he replied: “No never.” Thrilled, Bradley added: “What’s interesting about this, is that I was given this by my producer.
“So producer Helen will get her 10 pounds back, and I’ll get £40! I love this job. It’s the greatest job in the world,” he proclaimed.
The TV favourite then jokingly crumpled up the cash note, in a bid to make it look like it had disappeared. As the audience laughed, Bradley bent down to stash the cash in his socks.
For his cash-builder, Miles managed to bag £7,000 and even beat The Chaser Mark in their head-to-head. Sadly, the same couldn’t be said for Miles’ teammates.
Both April and Sam were caught – leaving Brummie Ross as the last player left to try and join Miles in the Final Chase. But unfortunately for him, he was caught.
In the Final Chase, Miles managed to bag an impressive 18 correct questions. Sadly, he was sent home empty-handed after he was caught by Mark with 14 seconds remaining.
