The Chase turned tense with one player telling host Bradley Walsh “I will bite you, if you come near”.
While the part time scare actor was of course bantering with the iconic TV presenter, it wasn’t just her sharp toothed warning that got viewers talking. During a chat about what Diane planned to do with her winnings – should she be successful – she had a rather “shocking” response.
Diane confessed that she was in need of a new fridge after she’d “accidentally set fire to it” – following a TikTok challenge going wrong. It’s not like Brad to be left speechless but he didn’t quite know what to say after hearing the bombshell revelation.

Fans watching at home were left feeling a bit uneasy about the exchange. With one person writing on the online platform X: “Diane scares me,” as another said: “Diane needs locking up for her own safety,” as a third added; “Ok, that’s enough Diane.”
At the start of the episode, Dianne explained that she’d been a “teaching assistant for 22 years” but now instead “just runs around scaring people” for a living. During the exchange, Brad said: “You’re having a laugh ain’t you?”
He then went on to ask: “If you win something today, what are you going to do with it?” Turning to the audience, the host added: “I’ve got a right one here.”
She responded saying: “I need a new fridge because I set fire to it. My friend wanted a video for TikTok and wanted something unusual taken out of the fridge, so I took a candle out and accidentally set fire to it.”
More laughter landed after Diane was greeted with Irish Chaser Darragh Ennis. She’d bagged £5,000 in the cash builder and he wasn’t about to go easy with his offers.
