The Chase

By far and away the best. The Australian version has Andrew O'Keefe thinking folks watch just for him. Talks too fast, speaks in ridiculous accents and waves his hand around like a conductor. Also talks over contestants when they are speaking. At least Ch7 have now fired him. Bradley is the epitome of game show hosts. Funny and very laid back.

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.

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.

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.

Not for the faint-hearted LOL You sit on the edge of your seat barracking for the contestants to beat "The Beast" Questions not too easy, and prob not too hard overall IF you live in the UK, but as an Australian I find a lot of questions re people and places known more to the locals of the United Kingdom and close surrounding countries well out of my wealth of knowledge! The format of both quick questions and multiple choice makes it a fun challenge to play along. Great to sit back at 3pm each weekday (or taped, over weekend) with a strong cup of tea... but you can easily forget to drink it as you get sucked deep into "The Chase"! A lot of fun and games. Easily the BEST WEEKDAY QUIZ on afternoon TV here in Australia! I give it a big thumbs up!!😉👍
