The Chase: ‘How?’ Viewers in turmoil over Jenny Ryan's answer in final round
THE CHASE viewers were bemused after they heard Jenny Ryan give an answer during the Final Chase on today’s instalment of the ITV quiz.
The Chase: Jenny Ryan pronounces Zac Efron wrong
The programme was hosted as usual by Bradley Walsh, who had all four players in The Chase final.
But in the last round of the ITV show, Jenny caught viewers’ attentions.
It unfolded as Bradley reeled off questions for the Vixen to answer to catch the team.
“Who played John Tyree in the 2010 film Dear John?” the host asked.
That just cracked me up
To which Jenny replied “Zac Efron”, putting a stress on the letter “E”.
Those at home thought her pronunciation was highly unusual and took to Twitter to comment.
“Who the f**k is Zac eeeefron #thechase,” one mused.
Another admitted: “Zac "E"fron. That just cracked me up #TheChase.”
“How did she just say Zac Efron?? #TheChase,” a third asked.
Unfortunately for Jenny, it also wasn’t the right answer as the actor was Channing Tatum, but the team didn’t get it either.
In the end, the Chaser was triumphant despite the contestants’ valiant efforts.
They had managed to get 21 points ahead but Jenny made quick work of catching them.
Fans took to Twitter to praise the brainiac for her impressive performance.
“Fair play to The Vixen for making that look easy ! #GangOfChase #thechase,” one exclaimed.
Another added: “Wow Jen. Incredible. And at such a speed. #thechase.”
“That was awesome from @jenlion #thechase,” a third declared.
A fourth wrote: “@thechaseitv @ITV @jenlion is a brilliant chaser! #TheChase.”
Yesterday’s episode saw Bradley stunned by a player’s confession over what they would do if they won some prize money.
Contestant Lena revealed she would be spending any winners on liposuction, much to Bradley’s surprise.
The Chase airs weekdays at 5pm on ITV.
