Carol Vorderman: Countdown star left stunned after Mark Labbett's shock revelation

Overwhelmed by the compliments, Mark revealed he has just had his passport renewed as he divulged his real age, saying: “I’m 54.”

An ecstatic Carol couldn’t believe his age, as the caller said: “You must have really good genes.”

Mark joked: “I do have good genes. And the most important thing I can say is the hair dye I use is nothing at all.”

Carol later took to Twitter and shared a snap alongside The Chase favourite, in view of her 425,000 followers.

She captioned the post: “Thank you for today ⁦@BBCRadioWales… And most of all for giving us your brilliant answers for pub quiz teams and what you’re doing during #StormDennis. You’re BRILLIANT. “And thank you The Beast ⁦@MarkLabbett and the Not so much of a Beast ⁦@OwainWynEvans.”
