ITV The Chase fans 'obsessed' with contestant who stormed high offer

dailyrecord.co.uk:

Kim from Manchester, Owen from Lincoln, Georgina from Hertfordshire, Perry from Truro all appeared on The Chase in the hopes of winning thousands of pounds as they took on the Chaser.

Running enthusiast Kim was up to face the chaser first and hoping to bag some cash to fund a Mediterranean cruise for her family and put £5,000 towards the prize pot as she took on Friday night's chaser Darragh, the menace.

Kim ended up knocked out of the competition and was followed by progress coach Owen who only managed to secure £1,000 as he was given a low offer of £1 with the chaser saying he had a "dodgy" cash builder round.Owen was also booted from the final chase as he gambled on the high offer of £99,000 as it was all hanging on Georgina from London who seemingly couldn't confirm her job but says she loves to paint in her spare time.Georgina went for her £4,000 she put in the bag on her cash building round as the chaser said she made a mistake by not taking the lower offer and getting back safe as Perry said he was going for the higher offer.She did however make it back, as Perry was the last one up and the recording studio owner and piano dealer bagged only £1,000.

However it was Perry's performance in the chase which stunned viewers as he chose to go for the higher offer of £88,000 as he smashed it and took their total up to £92,000 and a hand shake from host Bradley Walsh.The pair had a score of 14 in the final chase and were sadly caught out by the chaser with 30 seconds remaining losing their jackpot money.
