The Chase

Water John

He is fiercely competitive. The road trip taken by Ann, The Dark Destroyer and The Beast was very illuminating and interesting.

Good article. Anne has had to fight many demons along the way. Also interesting that Mark Labbett was instrumental in her getting going.

Family member has met Anne on the quiz circuit, and says she's very nice and approachable.

Just read the art, lovely piece of journalism.

But then if they rise him a bit he makes "THE BIGGEST OFFER WE'VE EVER MADE". He, in particular, would completely lose the run of himself if let loose I reckon!

Its funny how they always say Paul Sinha is smug. I think the Beast is the smug one. I know theres a bit of showmanship, but I do think the Beast comes across as a bit of a pr1ck at times.

I think he comes across as a LOT of a pr1ck at times! He has an ego the size of a bus, and can't be bothered to hide it.



Paul Sinha is far and away my favourite of them all (followed by Ann) - charming, funny, and willing to nominate teams as favourites the odd time, so leaves his ego in the green room.

They each have different personalities with pluses and minuses, but they all all very human and great entertainers because of that.

There was one episode where the Beast got badly beaten in the final chase and he was visibly p1ssed and punched the wall when he was going back to the green room, causing it to wobble.

Gone right off the Chase in general.

Must be nearing cancellation at this stage.

Thats my fear. Just watching 'Challenge ' and can remember the furore about ' deal or no deal , millionaire and and other shows that have gone down. But they might have been weekend shows rather than daily ones.

I think Sean Wallace is a lot more craic then is given credit for. I remember there was a question involving twerking. Brad said "Whats twerking", so Sean demonstrated. You wouldn't see the Beast doing that.

Happened to watch Classic Who Wants to be a Millionaire last night and guess who was a contestant?! Only the Beast himself! It was in April 2006, so 15 years ago! Little did he know where he’d end up!

I remember him on Only Connect years ago. That must have been around the time The Chase started (just before).

Absolutely. He regularly bursts into song too.
