The Chase

The Chase is one of those classic style of game shows. It doesn't rely on lots of rules and flashing lights in order to gain your attention as a viewer and instead is more about the contestants and the cheeky chappie persona of the host Bradley Walsh as they take on the Chaser.

The Chasers themselves make the game what it is and everyone has their favourite in a sort of love to hate way. From the smug and deadpan wit of Mark to the smooth customer in Shaun every chaser battles each contestant with ease as they try to bring their money back home.

ITV have struck gold with this simple format and loyal audience following so here's hoping it begins to get the attention that it deserves.

Love the show in Australia and the UK. Why the hell is that stupid pointless rating higher than this show. Ridiculous. The Chase is a great game show.

This is so much better than Australian version Bradley doesn't need to gibbitz,flail his hands about,speak like a six year old & forcibly laugh like a nutcase over everyone else.Australian one unwatchable this one makes up for it

The Chase seems to have been running for ages, and in all honesty, it's still the best gameshow on TV by a mile, the formula just works. A few new chasers have joined, but essentially they've left it unchanged.

It doesn't matter which Chaser faces the contestants, they each have so much to offer. The banter is always great, and Bradley is a wonderful presenter, he's just got it.

I hope it goes in for years to come, it's a cracking show. 9/10.

During the series 11 and the 100 th episode which was recently shown on Challenge television The question from Bradley Walsh was what religion did St Patrick bring to Ireland . The excepted answer from the contestant was Catholicism. That is totally wrong he brought Christianity not Catholicism . I live in Downpatrick NI and he is buried in Downe Cathedral - a protestant Presbyterian cathedral. The town also has a Catholic cathedral so if he had brought Catholicism he would be buried there . The Town has a St Patrick's centre and while the catholic church may try to Claim him that narrative is in correct.
