Scottish The Chase contestant outfoxes The Vixen as viewers complain of 'easy questions'

The Chase viewers were left unimpressed by Wednesday night's episode, as they complained that the questions were too "easy".

Scottish Modern Languages teacher Malcolm was up first on the show last night. The 46-year-old from Dumfries and Galloway told host Bradley that he enjoyed golfing, but joked that it wasn't always relaxing as he played alongside his wife.

Bradley asked what the teacher would do with any winnings, and Malcolm replied: "I used to be a rugby player and I've also coached rugby in some of the schools I've worked in.

"I would love to use the money to go over to South Africa to watch the British Lions next season."

Malcolm then faced The Vixen, Jenny Ryan, in his battle to return to the table - and done so with his £7,000, reports the Daily Record.

He was joined by fellow contestants Charlotte and Michaela - but final contestant Thomas was caught by the Chaser, and was sent home.

The trio banked £16,000 altogether - just over £5,000 each - and headed into the final chase.

However, they all fell at the final hurdle, as The Vixen caught the team with 29 seconds on the clock.

Those watching at home weren't particularly impressed, however, as many felt the standard of the questions was exceptionally low.

One Twitter user wrote: "How Easy were the chasers questions... What colour is a raven?? Really reaaallly FFS.. I'm going off this programme #thechase."

Another said: "Tonight's questions were far too easy, especially for #thechaser #thechase."

And a third joked: "What colour is the common raven? Err, I dunno Brad. Is it orange? #TheChase."

Finally, one wrote: "Easy questions #thechase."

The Chase returns on Thursday, March 9 at 5pm on ITV.
