Mark Labbett makes savage dig at Pointless after The Chase player snubs his offer

Players Ness, Chloe, Fergus and Carey were welcomed onto the latest instalment of The Chase by host Bradley Walsh. Ness, who was the first player up against Mark ‘The Beast’ Labbett raised an impressive £7,000 in her cash builder round. When the Chaser asked her if she wanted to play on for £27,000, he lashed out when she said the amount was “not enough”.

Ness, who was hoping to fund her upcoming wedding, decided to play against Mark for £7,000 following the advice of her teammates. 

Carey said: “Definitely go for the £7,000 as there is strength in numbers when it comes to the final.” 

Chloe said: “I think you could definitely do the £27,000 but do the £7,000 to get yourself back here for the final.”

While explaining her decision to play on for £7,000, Ness bluntly said: “I don’t think the £27,000 is enough for me to gamble. I think I am going to go for £7,000.”

Ness sailed through to the final and Mark said: “And you reckoned £27,000 wasn’t enough.”

The next player to take on The Beast was Chloe who raised £3,000 in the opening round. 

Mark offered Chloe to play for £1,000, £3,000 or “a very generous” £30,000, and Chloe opted for the middle option. 

The Chaser then took a swipe about the BBC game show Pointless which shocked Bradley. 

Carey raised £5,000 in her opening round and made it through to the final after playing for that figure. 

The last player of the day, Fergus, also raised £5,000 and got to the final with Ness and Carey and they were playing for £17,000. 

The trio answered a total of 18 questions right between them before the Chaser was brought back for his turn. 

“Some good answers,” The Chaser added following the contestants’ group effort.
