ITV's The Chase sparks viewers' anger as players 'robbed' of £52,000

It was a nail-biting episode with a lot of money at stake but the outcome of Tuesday's (October 11) episode of The Chase didn't turn out as fans of the show had expected and viewers were fuming. Some critics even declared the quizzers had been 'robbed' of £52,000.

The ITV show began calmly enough with Bradley Walsh welcoming the latest players to the ruthless quiz programme. Four new contestants took up their positions ready to meet the chasers.

Contestants Charlie, Catherine, Heidi and Antony would be taking on Mark Labbett (nicknamed 'The Beast' on the show) in a bid to win a cash prize and the team seemed confident. The quizzers had never met before appearing on the show but they gave a strong team performance and all players progressed to the final Chase. Catherine opted to take the higher offer of £38,000 before she navigated her way past the Beast to substantially boost the cash haul.
