ITV's The Chase star Shaun Wallace fuming after contestant's insult

The Chase's Shaun Wallace was left unimpressed after a contestant said "he's the worst."

Bradley Walsh welcomed another set of hopefuls to take on the chaser this evening and among them was 33-year-old Kieron who left a lasting impression. Alongside him were teammates Angie, Lynn and Tom.

Being the first to take on the chaser, Kieron stepped up ready to play. During a chat with Bradley, Kieron admitted he wanted to take on Shaun Wallace because "statistically he's the worst".

Instead of Anne Hegerty or Paul Sinha appearing, Shaun 'The Dark Destroyer' Wallace was today's opponent. The stony-faced Chaser entered, responding: "He's right. He's not wrong. Let's get on with this."

After Kieron successfully beat the Chaser and secured £5,000 for his team, Shaun claimed he'd called him a "useless Chaser". As Bradley tried to defend Kieron's comments, Shaun retorted: "He basically implied that. Yes he did."

The Chase airs weekdays at 5pm on ITV and ITV Hub
