The Chase fans were left shouting at their TV screens yesterday after the team were just ONE second away from winning a whopping £43,000.

Kim, Rick and Ian racked up an impressive £43,000 between them.

But it seems the Chaser was on top form and knocked them out of the game with one second remaining in the final chase.

The hopeful contestants were gobsmacked by the defeat with Rick saying: “Shaun, I hope you stand on a plug tonight.”

Viewers were left outraged and distraught for the team.

One wrote on Twitter: “Dont know what i would do being 1s off for 43k #TheChase.”

“Missing out on 43k by 1 single second #TheChase #LivingTheDream,” said another.

A third tweeted: “‘I hope you stand on a plug”…..bwahahahahahahahahahahaha #TheChase.”

Another wrote: “Anything more upsetting in British TV than the contestants losing to the chaser with 1 second left, I think not #thechase.”

Meanwhile on yesterday’s show Bradley was left red-faced after mocking a contestant for their answer choice which turned out to be right.

After quizzer Barbara chose her answer Bradley was sure she was wrong.

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

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

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 actually correct and the host was left gobsmacked.
