The Chase's Bradley Walsh embarrassed after Mark Labbett makes 'cutting' remark over jokes

Bradley Walsh was left slightly embarrassed after The Chase's Mark Labbett made a 'cutting' remark over his jokes. Host Bradley Walsh was rooting for players Janine, Thomas, Carol and Eli as they competed for a cash prize on the latest instalment of ITV's The Chase.

However, Thomas was the only player to sail through to the final as experienced Chaser Mark 'The Beast' Labbett easily answered any question thrown his way, as reported by The Express. Janine raised £7,000 in her opening round ahead of going up against Mark on the game show, opting for the middle option between £2,000 and £30,000 following the advice of her teammates.

But as the round got underway, The Beast took a swipe at Bradley's jokes after the presenter asked Janine a question about the Government's waste hierarchy. "Which of these is the most important?" Bradley asked Janine.

"A, prevention, B, disposal or C, recycling?" Janine took a guess and selected recycling, but the correct answer was prevention.

Bradley, who knew the answer, told viewers: "I am the recycling fiend in our street." However, The Beast cheekily added: "I can tell that from your jokes."

Bradley looked horrified and placed his head on a part of the set in shame, adding: "Janine, he's so cutting." Sadly Janine was soon caught out by the Chaser and Thomas took to the stage for his turn.

He got five questions right and decided to play Mark for £5,000 which he hoped to bring to the episode's final. Bradley ended up trying to hold back laughter when he asked whether people couldn't smell, see or hear underwater, jokily warning children against trying to smell underwater as Thomas breezed through to the final.
