Bradley, 56, asked Barbara: “Which suitably named actress plays Pip Archer in the countryside radio drama ‘The Archers’?”

And the player had to chose from Heather Fox, Rose Squirrel or Daisy Badger.

The host was highly amused by the unusual names and burst into laughter.

As Barbara went for Daisy Badger, Bradley couldn’t help but laugh at her choice.

He joked: “Why did you put Daisy Badger? It’s not going to be ‘badger’.

“It will be Heather Fox, one of the Fox family, like Emilia Fox.”

But the answer was in fact right and Bradley couldn’t believe it.

The presenter put his face in his hands as he quipped: “That’s a terrific name!”

Viewers were also amused by the funny names and shared their thoughts on Twitter.

One wrote: “Daisy Badger, what a name. #TheChase.”

Another added: “The Daisy Badger question another one for The Chase funniest moments compilation #TheChase @ITVChase.”

A third tweeted: “Daisy Badger shut @BradleyWalsh right up #thechase brilliant.”

Meanwhile on the popular show recently, the audience was in hysterics as contestant Graham shared a hilarious confession about his love life.

The 82-year-old revealed he met a woman while he was on a cruise and they enjoyed “clicking their hips” together.

Graham told Bradley: “12 months ago I was on a cruise and I met a lovely lady from up north. We clicked and we get on great together.”

Bradley quickly said: “When you say you clicked, was that the zimmer frames whacking together?”

Graham then joked: “No, my hips.”

Of course viewers couldn’t get enough of Graham.

One wrote on Twitter: “Graham has serious banter #TheChase.”

Another added: “Eeee, Graham on #thechase is so cute! I want them to win, just because of him.”
