The Chase's Bradley Walsh issued a stern response to bring an optimistic player back to reality.
The presenter welcomed another round of players hoping to take home a hefty cash prize. Their opponent was Darragh Ennis but Bradley stepped up to act as today's villain.
First up to the plate was 30-year-old marine biologist Ed. He planned to spend the cash on a synthesiser as he regularly enjoys playing in a post-punk band in his free time.

Ed was unfortunate in the cash builder round and only managed to answer three questions correctly. Attempting to be optimistic about his poor performance, he said: "That's okay."
Bradley interjected with an unusually harsh response as he said: "No it's not okay. You're a much better player than that."
Ed was somewhat stunned by the comment before acknowledging the first question tripped him up. As the show moved on, his luck failed to get any better and he was eliminated during the head-to-head.
Bradley said today's episode was "tough to take" after the entire team failed to meet his expectations. They were quickly wiped out by The Chaser one by one with only a single contestant making it to the final round.
