A Beat the Chasers 2022 contestant made a touching confession to Bradley Walsh following her incredible win.
Melissa appeared on Wednesday night’s show as she took on five Chasers to hopefully win a whopping £60,000.
The Chasers offered Melissa the £60k but they wanted 43 seconds on their clock. She would have 60 seconds.

Bradley looked chuffed as the audience applauded Melissa.
Melissa then went up against the Chasers and she was on fire!
It came down to the final few seconds and after Melissa managed to get an answer in with just one second remaining on her clock, the Chasers ran out of time.
This meant Melissa had bagged the £60,000.
She watched The Chase every day and she would have been so proud.
She became emotional as she hugged Bradley while the Chasers gave her a standing ovation.
Melissa then made a touching confession to host Bradley.
