THE Chase fans have demanded a change to the show after Bradley Walsh took on Mark Labbett.
Tuesday’s episode of the ITV quiz show saw the second contestant in the team, John, score a whopping £11,000 in his Cash Builder round.

But despite his success, he opted not to accept Mark’s high offer of £50,000 and stuck with his middle offer of £11k.
Bradley, 61, was shocked and his response prompted Mark to say: “I’ll give you a tenner if you make it home from the high offer how’s that?”
Bradley replied: “Oh ok cool – Lets do that! I’ll play along.”
Things started off evenly with John, Bradley and Mark all getting the first answer correct.
However, Bradley then got an EastEnders question right but Mark didn’t, putting the host one ahead.
But The Beast clawed one back when Bradley got a Premier League question wrong followed by another, but in the end he stayed in his mock game but didn’t get chance to finish it as John had made it back safely to his seat with his £11,000.

Frustrated, Bradley said: “I was one step away from 50k!! We’ve never done that on the show before.”
Viewers were enjoying the show first, with one writing on Twitter: “Bradley should be a contestant on Celebrity #TheChase!!”
Another added: “#TheChase that whole episode was an experience to say the least! Brad prating around to win a bet, get him on the show for real ITV!”
However others felt Bradley had “distracted” John, even though the player made it safely through.
