ITV4 The Chase: Viewers 'won over' by Jo's voice and the 'odd' item she'd buy with her cash prize

On Monday (August 22) we saw the return of another episode of STVs The Chase - or ITV if you're down south.

Bradley took to the studio alongside Nathan, Glenda, Jo and Greg who are all working together in a bid to take home the cash prise, and of course the glory of saying they beat The Chaser. Tonight The Chaser was none other than Jenny Ryan, also known as The Vixen, and she was on her best game.

First up was Nathan, a 39-year-old developer from Liverpool who scored £6,000 in the cash builder round and later went onto secure the figure in the Chase. Second was Glenda, a 56-year-old English Teacher from Hertfordshire who scored £1,000 in the cash builder round with Jenny saying her cash builder needed "intensive care" in reference to her hobby for skin care.

Third up was Jo, a Customer Assistant from Birmingham but before she took to the stage people were already won over by her thanks to two things - her voice and her what she would buy with the money. Before the break and taking centre stage, Jo said all she wanted was to buy "perfume" with host Bradley Walsh teasing her by asking how expensive the perfume she wanted is.

She then revealed she wanted to buy Chanel No.5 which can cost around £100 and as much as £200 for an exclusive bottle joking she wanted to be "bathing" in the perfume by the end of the show. Jo managed to get £4,000 in the cash builder round and thankfully managed to get home to the relief of viewers.

Up last was Greg, a 42-year-old painter and decorator from Suffolk, who scored £5,000 in the cash builder but sadly didn't get home. In the end the team ended up winning and taking home £11,000 after an epic final chase round securing an impressive 24 in the final with no more seconds left on the clock and eight required.

And it was clear that Nathan was happy with home getting a little too excited after winning much to the entertainment of those in the studio and at home with Brad joking to lay off the coffee.

Taking to Twitter people watching at home clearly loved Jo with one saying: "Omg Jo's voice is so cute."

Another added: "Imagine coming on #TheChase cos you want to buy a perfume. What an ambitious woman."

"Aw they better win it for Jo. She seems like a sweetie" a third tweeted.

However a fourth kindly issued a money-saving tip advised: "Go to Super savers Jo. They do some great perfumes at very reduced prices."
