    Y'know that's a photo from last year, right? :P

    This is three of them from this year, Jenny tweeting away before the show started:

    My stepdad, watching an episode on Be3: "They must have got rid of the Vixen."

    Me: "That episode was made two years ago."

    I should also point out he's not a fan of Jenny. Shame, really. :o:o;)

    Meanwhile, here's the Beast somehow thinking that it goes "Monday, Tuesday, Happy Days, Wednesday, Thursday, Happy Days..." :D:D:D

    Maybe that's how the producers of that show wanted to portray him?

    Producers of certain TV shows do like to meddle about to suit their own ends. Heck, they'd portray Katie Hopkins as the greatest person who ever lived if they wanted to... :o:o:o :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: ;)

    Getting back on topic, here's the Dark Destroyer being interviewed by a local radio station in Coventry (with cameos from the Vixen and Eggheads Barry and Steve). As you can see, he's a genuinely lovely man away from the studio: :);)

    The post above got me thinking of Eggheads vs Chasers. Some serious brains there, Chasers would take them though.

    I missed it I think. That girl today got zero in the cash builder and only one from the board. She was very young and at least has the craic with the lads.

    ITV version today, contestant called Kelly took minus 6 thousand offer, twitter was not happy. The vitriol is something to behold.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    Was watching the Chase today and there were two people, a man and a woman, left in the final chase. They did quite well getting 15, and got caught with about 4 seconds to go. They would have won it if not once, but twice the guy answered when the girl buzzed in. If I'd been stood next to him I would have lost it with him afterwards.

    I've just watched back tonight's episode on be3.... there was a contestant called Kelly on it but she took €5000..... is it a massive co-incidence and there was another Kelly on another episode on another channel on the same day???

    Suppose it is a bit of a coincidence, though not a rare name. This is the one I saw:

    There's a sample of some of the twitter comments that followed.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    What else could it be but a coincidence.

    Not the same conspiracy but I'm feeling a bit of a conspiracy theorist, I think Shaun Wallace threw the final chase today (on UK ITV). Took an age to answer, got some fairly easy questions wrong and generally looked like he wasn't trying! (and I know he's not the best chaser anyway, but struck me as being poorer than usual) Hmmmmmmmmmm.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    It was a chronic performance. Didn't know how many deadly sins there was and didn't know who Smokie were living next door to.

    There's no way did he not throw that.

    Been watching this on Challenge for the last while. Out of curiosity, how often does the chaser lose in the Final Chase segment? I've become rather accustomed to a formula of the team building up a decent wad of cash during the individual rounds, and then being beaten in the final chase. Is this the norm, or do the team frequently manage to win in the final chase?
