Chaser The Beast made £1million in a single month but has also had to fend off a fair few loving fans. Mark Labbett has been striking fear into the hearts of contestants on ITV’s The Chase since it started in 2009.
As reported by the Mirror, last year the 56-year-old former maths teacher earned a seven-figure sum while working on the show’s American version. Mark said: “It’s more than I earned in the first 49 years of my life.”
But fame has come at a price for the 6ft 6in star nicknamed The Beast. Overly enthusiastic fans do not leave him alone, according to the TV star.
