viewers were left devastated after one player narrowly missed out on taking home their winnings.
returned with a new episode of the programme on Wednesday (November 27), welcoming Moyra, Sarah, Umar and Ciaran into the studio.
First up against Jenny Ryan was Moyra, who racked up an impressive £5,000 in the cash builder. Aware of the 64-year-old’s knowledge, the rest of the team urged her to either go high or take the middle offer.
Moira ultimately decided to stick with the middle offer and became the first player in the final chase. The second to go head-to-head with The Vixen was Sarah, who also answered five questions correctly in the cash builder.
Despite being tempted by the low offer of £1,000, she also opted for the middle offer. However, this is when things started to go downhill for the team.
Sarah was quickly caught by the chase before the same happened to Umar. That left 25-year-old Ciaran, who was urged to take the high offer by Moyra as she insisted they had nothing to lose.
Unfortunately, the maths and english tutor was caught after just two questions, leaving Moyra alone with £5,000 to win in the final chase.
Despite standing on her own, Moyra answered a whopping 18 questions correctly on her own, one of the highest scores displayed by a solo player in the final chase.
“I had a feeling,” Jenny said as she returned. “I wouldn’t put anything past Moyra, that was a really great performance.”
However, Jenny’s form was too difficult to beat on the day as she caught Moyra’s score of 18 with 22 seconds remaining.
Viewers of The Chase were completely heartbroken by the outcome as they took to social media to declare that Moyra deserved to win.
