The Chase fans were left in stitches after host Bradley Walsh feared a wardrobe blunder.
Answering questions in front of the nation on The Chase is a terrifying experience, which is made even worse when Bradley Walsh suggests that your trousers might fall down in the middle of your cash builder. Craig from Manchester stepped up to the stage with a spring in his step, determined to produce a sparkling performance. However, attention soon swung from quizzing to what he does for a living.
After revealing his occupation, Bradley shrieked: “You teach fashion?” While processing the breaking news, the host started evaluating Craig’s appearance and offered him an enormous compliment.

The former Doctor Who star beamed: “I’ve got to be honest with you, I love the low-flung chinos.” But while pleased with the kind remark, the quizzer revealed an alarming secret.
The 40-year-old confessed: “I’ve forgotten my belt.” Realising the potential disaster that could occur in front of a live studio audience, a terrified Bradley replied: “I know you’ve forgotten your belt. Is that why your hands are there? Faux pas for the fashion teacher.”
Outside of his job, Craig leads a very interesting life, spending his free time painting, working on his sewing machine, and even making dolls and scrapbooks.
While some contestants take on The Chase for luxury holidays and a new car, all Craig wants is a new sewing machine. So, with that in mind, he put it all on the line in a bid to earn enough money to buy the piece of machinery he so desperately wants.
Showcasing remarkable quizzing skills, the academic exhibited knowledge on Noddy, Charlie Chaplin and Poker, to accumulate a whopping £7000.
However, while his showing was undeniably impressive, taking on a Chaser is an entirely different kettle of fish. At this point, it was time for Craig to go head-to-head with ‘The Governess’ Anne Hegerty.
Breaking the ice with a joke, the legendary competitor said: “Hello Craig the fashion teacher. Last time I tried runway modelling, they had to close Gatwick.”
Placing his glasses on his head, Craig entered the zone, cruising through to one question away from home with plenty of time to spare. Alas, he suddenly spiralled out of control, getting several questions incorrect, leaving Anne just a step away.
Holding his nerve, Craig maintained his composure to rejoin his team with an eye-watering £7000.
