    Bugger :(

    Saw one of those a while back and it was hilarious. Hopefully was the same one so I haven't missed anything!

    I didn't see the first one but I believe this was a new one.

    There is a Chase Bloopers programme on January 6th on VM2 which may be a repeat of this new one.

    Bradley just goes too far with the fake laughing sometimes though! The lack of subtletly takes away from the moment! You can clearly see its an act when he goes into those extreme manic episodes of laughter!



    But Bradley is a very good skin so I don't mind too much!

    Fanny Chmelar - great name

    I think he just sees the humour in everything, especially when its the old postcard type stuff.

    I am not saying he doesn't find some of the innuendo and school yard humour funny, but he clearly is self trained to go ott with his reactions. The silly answers are planted just so he can do his manic laugh "act" every so often (most notably on the celebrity shows)

    As I said, he is a nice guy and naturally witty and entertaining so he can get away with this one but it is pretty evident that all is not genuine about how he reacts to that and it kind of takes away from the moment!

    I agree. It's pathetic and unbecoming. A grown man having fits over toilet humour. What's worse is that it's all forced. It's almost as if he wants to make a ' funniest bits" compilation to show at a Celebration of Bradley Walsh' and thus further his career.

    Yes I agree. he needs to stop the forced laughter, his face is looking like a smashed piece of glass with all the creases on it.

    My goodness, The Chase Australia host is abysmal.

    Yeah I saw that. Doesn't have Bradley's charisma or wit.

    It's not really the point. Noone expects a host to be that close to Bradley in terms of how he conducts himself on the show so I never anticipated pitting him up against Bradley.

    But this guy is in a league of his own, in terms of awfulness. The fake reactions and fake laughter and , the prooollllloooonnggggggginnnnnnggggg offfffff hisssssss sennnnnntencessssss (if you haven't noticed this yet, I am sorry as you will notice it now!) and the silly ott reactions he makes when a contestant misses out a question is really irritating.

    Once you start noticing those quirks, it is hard to take them out of your head. And Bradley rightly gets some criticism for the ott laughing fits but this guy is like a cartoon host.

    You could see The Beast and Ann getting very irritated by him at times.

    I love The Chase, but I came across the Australian one today. Awful. I really dislike the accent anyway which didn't help.

    She was a great player in fairness, she rattled the Vixen. 8 out of 9 pushback opportunities taken.

    +1 no need for it, and for a professional actor he is terrible at faking/acting it.
