Bradely Walsh had to intervene during the Celebrity special of The Chase.
The ITV host stepped in to speak with actor Danny John-Jules after he appeared to not know the rules of the show. He came up against Jenny Ryan and on question one found himself stumbling around not knowing how to answer.
Needless to say, the timer ticked down and Danny missed his opportunity to press one of the three options in front of him. TV star Brad yelled out: “Press the button, what are you doing Danny.”

Realising he hadn’t answered Brad pulled him off the stage to go over the rules of the game with him. Wrapping an arm around him, Brad said: “Now I know you didn’t want to be on the show but you have to answer the questions but pressing the button, that’s how it works.”

Despite giving the actor a talking to and informing him of the rules, he managed to make the same error for the second time. Bradley shouted again: “Press the button, press the button, press the button” as time ran out again.
Danny didn’t seem phased by his two initial mistakes as he laughed along. He even nearly missed an opportunity to answer for a third time.

In spite of the poor start, Danny did manage to make it back for the final after answering all other questions correctly. Fans however were worried that he could ruin it for the other players in the final.
Over on the platform X – formerly known as Twitter – one online user said: “If he struggles pressing the button and now he’s got through, does it mean he’s going to spoil the final chase with multiple ‘wrong person answered’ #TheChase,” as a second added: “It’s worrying when you can’t even press a button #TheChase.”
Others were just as frustrated with Danny as host Bradley. One comment read: “Just press the s***ing button!!!!! #TheChase,” as a second penned: “Danny is really annoying. Didn’t deserve to get through. #thechase,” while a third chimed in with: “In the words of @thesugababes_’Push the button’ #thechase.”
Fans were wrong to be worried as Danny didn’t answer one question in the final the round. Fortunately his co-star Yinka Bokinni was on fine form answering nearly all of the 17 questions correctly on her own.
Sadly it wasn’t enough to take home the cash with Jenny Ryan aka The Vixen catching them with only a few seconds left on the clock. She told them: “If you’d answered 19 correctly it would have been a whole different game.”
