The Chase frontman Bradley Walsh has slammed rival BBC gameshow, Pointless, in a blistering rant during the latest episode the show.
As four new players joined him in a bid to win a large cash prize it was Scottish call center worker Maryanne that sparked the host’s ire after she admitted she had once appeared on the rival show. Explaining that she made the final but “only won a trophy” Brad began: “Of course it was just a trophy. How much cash did you win? £8-9? Your bus fare home? Not even that you had to put to it to get home did you?”
When Maryanne then began chatting with the chaser, Mark “The Beast” Labbett, after scoring an impressive eight questions correctly in her cash builder round, Bradley quipped: “here’s the difference – eight questions right on Pointless – £3.24. Eight questions right here – £8k.”

But still the anger continued after the Beast offered her a low offer of £3k – causing him to blast: “hang on a minute we’ve just offered you more on a low offer than they do all series!” Fans were thoroughly entertained by the rant. Taking to X, one fan said: “Bradley Walsh is right about Pointless!”
Another penned: “Bradley taking the wee-wee out of #Pointless again .” Another pointed out: “I love the fact that Pointless presenter Alexander Armstrong narrates Brad & Barney’s series Breaking Dad!” and “Excellent Pointless slagging on #thechase tonight.”

The first three members of the teams put on an impressive performance, however it was player Dawn that changed the mood of the game. Despite scoring £7k in her cash builder she opted to take the minus £4k offer to give herself a higher chance of beating the chase.
This would however take £4k off the prize fund. The team did managed to take home their winnings, but fans slammed her gameplay.

“Still can’t believe she got £7k in the cash builder only to go so low with a minus offer of £4k. Well done to the others though,” penned one viewer. “Great performance in the final by both the team and The Beast. #TheChase Shame about the low offer,” said a second.
A third added: “Dawn is getting coal for Christmas,” and a fourth: “#TheChase What a farce!! Dawn should have won NOTHING! Awful female.”
