A player on The Chase had everyone gobsmacked over her real age – including host Bradley Walsh.
The hit ITV gameshow was back on TV screens on Tuesday (April 30) as telly legend Bradley Walsh welcomed four new quizzers. As fans tuned in, he introduced contestants Ivan, Sabrina, Michele and John before they battled it out to take home the all-important cash prize.
This week the quartet were up against Mark Labbett, also known as The Beast, who made sure to bring his A-game against the wise quizzers. But things took a cheeky turn when it was Michele’s time to play.

Talking about herself, Michele said: “I’m retired now but i was a marketing consultant.” Bradley was gobsmacked at her admission and quipped back: “Retired?!”
Michele explained: “Slightly early, I’m 60.” Amazed by her appearance, former Corrie star Bradley had his mouth on the floor, before he quipped: “Well you look great. You look really great!”
Michele replied: “Aw thank you very much and yourself.” But things took a cheeky turn when Bradley then joked: “What did you say? I should hope so! I’m only 43!” as the audience laughed along.
As for hobbies she said her two horses Frank and Bruno take up a lot of her time. And if she won some cash she revealed she was planning a trip to the Antartica with her hubby.
Michele managed to make it through her round after accepting the middle offer. She then joined fellow players John and Ivan in the final chase.
The trio were playing for a huge £19,000, and during the last game, they managed to get 23 correct answers following a three question head start. And when it came to The Beast’s turn, he made a prediction that the team would lose. However, after six pushbacks, the team won with 18 seconds left – leaving The Beast rather unimpressed.
