The Chase: Mark berates himself after getting question wrong
Mark 'The Beast' Labbett of The Chase couldn't hide his frustration in the latest gripping episode as a talented trio outsmarted him to claim a staggering £80,000 jackpot.
The episode, which aired on Tuesday, saw a remarkable turn of events when a three-person team bested the quiz titan himself. After a relatively moderate but promising start, Tony and Linda set the stage, with Roger brilliantly bagging a massive £71,000.
The fourth contestant, Rebecca, failed to reach the final round after being caught by Mark, leaving host Bradley Walsh skeptical about their chances without a complete team. However, against all odds, during the nail-biting final chase, The Beast stumbled and made critical errors.
In a moment of self-reproach, the quizzing legend exclaimed, "Oh, you idiot!" upon realising a blunder. When the time eventually ran out, Mark was left with an unlikely one second to tackle two questions from eighteen, leading him to grudgingly concede, "I don't deserve to win", while the contestants erupted in joyous celebration.
Viewers were equally astounded by the unexpected outcome, celebrating online as the winners reveled in their significant windfall. Commentaries flooded in, praising Roger's standout performance throughout the show, reports the Mirror.

Another exclaimed: "Well done Roger, won the most money and answered the most questions."
A third wrote: "Well done! Nail-biting stuff, good telly."
While certain viewers expressed sympathy for Rebecca who missed out on the substantial team prize. One viewer commented: "Well played, great team and well done Roger. Hope they give Rebecca a couple of grand. Bless her, she was so disappointed."

Another remarked: "I stand corrected. A mediocre effort from the Chaser helped them but flipping heck, I am surprised. Thought they'd need at least 20. Rebecca is watching now like [crying emoji]."
A third enthusiast penned: "Great win. Rebecca must be gutted."
Spotting the consequences of Rebecca's decision in her round, a viewer noted: "Well done team on winning #TheChase. Enjoy the money. Especially, the extra £9,166 you each earned from Rebecca not getting through."
The Chase airs weekdays at 5pm on ITV1.
