Bradley Walsh was left in stitches after hearing about a Welsh game show contestant's unusual "hobby" on Beat the Chasers. The Cardiff contestant, who was only identified as Gareth on the latest episode of the hit ITV game show, left the programme host and the other 'Chasers' in fits of laughter when he explained his bizarre spate of record attempts.
Gareth, who is originally from Caernarfon but now lives in Cardiff, revealed to Walsh that he'd developed a strange "habit in the last few years" - attempting to get his name enshrined in the Guinness Book of Records. But despite trying (and trying by all accounts), university IT administrator Gareth admitted he'd "never been successful" at breaking any of them.
When asked by host Walsh to give examples of his record attempts, Gareth said: "Like throwing a rubber chicken to see how far (it would go) - there's a record for that but I can't remember how far (the record) is now." Gareth went on: "There's one (record) I thought was very beatable which is to try and alphabetise a tin of alphabetti spaghetti - the record is four minutes and I thought that was beatable but it isn't - it takes like 10 (minutes)."
