fans have called out ITV bosses over “fix” claims after a high-stakes round took an unexpected turn.
During Wednesday’s episode (December 11) of the popular quiz show, host greeted a fresh group of contestants vying to take home the hefty cash prize.
As fans tuned in for the primetime show, the broadcaster welcomed player Adrian, who joined three fellow hopefuls who took on chaser Paul Sinha in hopes of winning bags of cash.
After bringing an impressive £7k to the table in his cash builder round, the Oldham-born player opted to go for the high offer of £40k that left fans on the edge of their seats.
But after the Adrian got a question wrong, the former star couldn’t help but tease: “Do you think he gets it wrong?” regarding chaser Paul ‘The Sinnerman’ Sinha, before getting answer from the rest of the team.
Luckily for Adrian, he did get it wrong, saving him from elimination. But just minutes later the player answered another fairly easy question incorrectly, which was set to send him home with nothing.
Astonishingly, The Sinnerman again got the question wrong, leaving fans suspicious about the series of events being “scripted”.
“What a fu**ing fix this is,” blasted one player. “That was 100% scripted them asking if they think the Chaser will get it wrong when in fact he gets it wrong. Classic ITV.” Penned a second. A third added: “Why did the chaser getting that wrong feel scripted?”
