The Chase: Viewers STUNNED at Strictly star Aljaz Skorjanec 'Worst ever score'
STRICTLY COME DANCING star Aljaž Škorjanec suffered a very tough defeat on today’s charity celebrity special of The Chase, as he was slammed for his performance.
Celebrities have TERRIBLE final round on The Chase
Aljaž was joined by tae kwon do Olympic gold medallist Jade Jones as the only two celebrities to make it to the final chase against Shaun Wallace, also known as the Dark Destroyer, on the ITV show, but they faced a string of tough questions and only managed to get five right.
Laughing at the pair’s efforts, the quiz show’s presenter Bradley Walsh said carefully: “We’ll need some pushbacks.”
The 57-year-old then recalled an earlier question that Shaun had gotten wrong, reminding him: “I’ve got one thing to say: Kippers.”
But while the team had a lucky break with one question about online retailer Amazon, answering correctly and pushing the chaser back one space, it wasn’t anywhere near enough to beat the master of trivia.

Never seen such a low score in the final round on #TheChase
Fans reacted angrily on Twitter to the poor achievement, as one person posted: “Never seen such a low score in the final round on #TheChase. This pair make #LoveIsland look like Mastermind.”
“That's the worst ever score I've seen on The Chase,” another viewer noted, while a third raged: “Five in the final chase! F***ing five! Goes to show celebrities are thick as sh** #TheChase.”
While one fan of the show claimed Jade was the worst player they’d ever seen on the show, saying: “Jade Jones has got to be the stupidest contestant I've ever seen on Celeb Chase,” another was more forgiving when they mentioned the positive outcome.
“Is that the lowest ever score in a final chase? #recordbreakers!”

“I will definitely keep dancing.... :) thank you for having me @ITVChase,” he tweeted.
