Rubbish
Worst quiz program on TV. Questions in final chase are far too easy.

Old School
Like everyone else, i also get the strong smell of skullduggery and subtle question manipulation going on behind the scenes. The only true & unquestionably fair way to eliminate any suspicion of unfairness or rigging of the Chasers final questions is in the final round, have a stack of cards with questions on, for both contestants and Chaser. These cards could go through a on screen shuffler. Only then, would my and by the looks of it everyone else's suspicions be eliminated.

So obviously fixed
Having watched several series we conclude that the final chase is a joke for 2 reasons:- 1) answers to the Chaser's questions are more widely known than the contestants' and 2) the Chasers questions are asked at a greater speed by Mr. Walsh who must be in on the fix. In fact it's so beyond a joke we shan't be watching any more.

questionable
after watching the chase for many weeks i think the way the question are given to the contestants and the chaser are questionable . i will not be watching any more ,
was a fan not any more 6:02pm Thu 10 May
 
   
Waste of time
Recently been on the chase and the show was a big disappointment all round. My teammates general knowledge was weak to say the least and they really shouldn't have been on the show. I ended up facing Paul alone for £8000. No chance! Bad tactics by ITV and very poor viewing.

DOES ANYONE EVER WIN!?
I do find the chase entertaining but have stopped watching it as i have never once seen the contestants beat the chaser. What is the point? I can't help but wonder why anyone would even apply on the show if they knew the chances of winning were next to nothing!

Fixed
I have noted since first watching the Chase how the questions were mostly simple for the chasers especially if they got a couple wrong. I like quiz's to be fair not one sided.

Fixed!
I have now watched this program for months and there is NO doubt that given the same questions I would always get more of the Chasers questions right. Also when they get one wrong there always follows such an easy question to get them going again. Complete fix!!

Timing
The contestants wud have wo the £50k+ Tuesday if were on a level playing field with the chaser. Chaser can answer questions immediately - contestants cannot !!! Unequal and unfair.

Harsh truth
Typical ITV gameshow, Probably produced by the same company that fixed the GMTV competitions.

FIX
OK so the team beat the chaser today, but overall it's so one sided towards the chaser in the final. 1) The team have to buzz in to answer taking up more time 2) Bradley is slower at asking the questions and stretches his "COOOORRRREECTTT" for a long as possible. When the chaser is fired questions they are so much faster. 3) The chasers' questions in the final round are so simple my 7 and 10 year old know the answers. This show is a total fix!!!!

pants
Going by the comnents i see i'm not the only one who thinks this show is one sided , that and a few incorrect questions here and there , and stacked in chasers favour , half minced pup quizers could get those right while there sleeping off there booze intake!

Pointless show
FIXED. Note how fast Bradley asks the questions to the chaser especially when there is over £5000 in the prize fund!. And the Chaser always wins by a miniscule amount of 2 - 5 seconds. FIXED

THE CHASE FEB. 14TH,
I.was appalled to see the attitude of the Chaser MARK LABBETT,at the conclusion of the above show.Left with only one `lady contestant on the final chase he was comprehensively beaten and without a word of Well done to the Applicant he stormed off the show like a spoilt child,This attitude certainly demands an apoligy on air to the young lady.

minus score
If the chaser catches the contestant who is going for a minus £target as on the 10th of Feb what happens to the score
Gun Ho 6:03pm Fri 10 Feb
 
   
Its a fix.
Most people watching at home can answer 90% of the chasers questions in the final chase with just the odd tricky one which is normally so tricky the players are unlikely to get right and knock back the chaser. Also the way the timing is done is ridiculously unfair Come on ITV this is prime-time TV you need to play fair and stop being so Tight!!

questions
a fairer way would be for the chaser and the contestants to pick the questions for the final chase from sealed envelopes. Also can Bradley not say c.o.r.r.e.c.t when the opponents get the question right. Sorry to be so negative but the show is so weighted in the chasers favour and it is so frustrating to watch. Perhaps ITV really dont want to give any money away?
laptop lynda 12:30am Thu 9 Feb
 
   
Chaser timing
Contestants shud get 10 more secs to respond to their questions as the Chaser is "straight in" and they have to wait to be nominated to reply thus giving them a disadvantage !!
crystal 5:59pm Mon 6 Feb
 
   
problems
the chase hardly fare when the teams get harder than the chaser. that is why it is easier for the chaser to beat the contestants. i think it is just that ITV don't won't to give away money to everyone if they win! other than that quite a good show to be honest.

I see they are in on this now - how boring. Bring back the British public.
Crystal 9:15am Sat 29 Oct
 
   
i think
the chaser has a look at the questions before the show, and deliberatly gets the odd one wrong to make it look real.
what a nerve 8:58pm Sat 24 Sep
 
   
fixed
I say it is deffinately fixed when chaser elliminates the first 3 contestents

The perfect TV game show for those who want to go home with nothing!
Reviewer 6:04pm Tue 20 Sep
 
   
a good game show
but it dose get boaring after a few shows.
fair minded critic. 7:50pm Mon 19 Sep
 
   
why
In the final Chase why does Bradley give the answer to the contestances with the clock ticking but when the Chaser gets a question wrong the clock is stopped cant see how this is fare
Flodrick 7:08pm Mon 19 Sep
 
   
Huge error in the show!!!
In a recnet show Bradley asked what is the highest break in Snooker, The contestant replied 147. THIS IS WRONG! The highest break possible in Snooker is 155 (it is rare but it involves a foul stroke leaving a free ball witah all 15 reds still on the table. The maximum break is then 155. Pretty poor a quiz show would make such a schoolboy error
Cj 11:30am Fri 9 Sep
 
   
Fairness
As a (winning) competitor can I let Proud Pagan know that the team gets a choice of question set "A" or "B" so if the chaser's seem easier that is just the luck of the draw.
Dino 9:58am Thu 8 Sep
 
   
The end
"What happens when the Chaser eliminates all four at the initial stage ?" I saw this happen once. They bring back all 4 contestants but only give them a £4000 prize fund to play for. Also they have to nominate one of them to answer the questions, so only one person faces the Chaser but they all spilt the money if that person wins.

The End
What happens when the Chaser eliminates all four at the initial stage ? Surely its not manipulated to stop that happening. Gullible Public.

Poor!
I auditioned for the chase today, and a girl whose general knowledge was zero was chosen over others who were very clever (not me!) tells me that ITV don't want people who can actually win!

A good show
I enjoy the show, the questions are challenging and I like to see people working together instead of back stabbing in Goldenballs or being selfish gits in Divided. Only quibble, Bradley speeds up for the chaser's final questions and they are easier than the teams'
Proud Pagan 5:57pm Thu 22 Jul
