Popular gameshow The Chase returned to ITV on Monday night (March 6) and Chaser Mark Labbett sending one contestant home in just minutes.
Mark, also known as The Beast, took on a panel of contestants - Gareth, Aaron, Nicky and Julie - as they battled to win thousands of pounds.
Bristol-born Aaron was up first to battle The Beast, and shared that he planned to spend the money on jetting off to New York with his girlfriend.

Aaron began with a measly £1,000 as a starting point, which he said was "not the best, but it's something" - as Chaser Mark was ready to give a sarcastic goodbye to the contestant, reports the Daily Record.
Mark joked: "Oh, dear Aaron. Well it's enough there to get ONE of you to New York!" Aaron replied: "I think I'll just get her to pack her bags and then at least one of us is a winner."
Mark then noted that it would be a "very wise choice."
The Beast then offered £100 as his lower choice, and a whopping £35,000 for his high offer - which he said was "a free shot".
The rest of the contestants urged Aaron to go for the £1,000 offer, but Gareth also hinted that the £100 could help, so they had an extra body for the final chase.
He stuck to his guns and stood with his £1,000 offering on the table to which Mark sighed and said "I agree with Gareth, when you are as weak as you are take whatever will get you home!"
Aaron probably should've listened to Gareth in hindsight, as he was caught by The Beast and sent home - despite the Chaser taking a blind guess at the final question.
Mark quipped: "Gareth was right, if you had taken the lower offer you would have been back home but tarrah!"
Contestants Gareth, Nicky and Julie battled it out in the final chase, and despite getting two knockbacks on the Chaser, they were caught out with 24 seconds remaining.
Host Bradley Walsh said: "Well, we lost the money but at least we had a laugh."
