The Chase's Shaun Wallace drops cash prize after 'cheeky' remark'

The Chase's Shaun Wallace offered an unreasonably low cash prize after a player's "cheeky" comments.

Bradley Walsh welcomed another round of players hoping to take home a hefty cash prize. The Dark Destroyer was their opponent today but the team's first contestant kicked things off to a miserable start.

During the cash builder round, Helen, 42, only managed to answer three questions correctly which secured her £3,000. She was then asked which chaser she felt the most comfortable taking on, revealing Shaun was her target.

Bradley asked her to explain her reasoning, to which she said: "Shaun has a tendency to get flustered. Don't get me wrong, he's amazing but I'm thinking maybe Shaun."

It was shortly revealed Shaun was indeed her opponent but he wasn't happy with her earlier comments. Announcing the high and low offers, he said: "For that cheeky remark, £300. For that even cheekier remark, £18,000."

Helen played it safe and eventually made it back to her team with £3,000. She was only joined by one other player with them both wiped out in the final round.
