One question on left , also known as The Vixen, completely stumped on this evening’s brand new episode. The Bolton-born quizzer took on a team of four new players, as they all put their wits to the test with her aim being to catch them before they bagged a cash prize.
Host Bradley Walsh welcomed Susan from Stoke-on-Trent, Jamahl from , Ali from Corwen and Spencer from Kent to take on as they tried to win thousands of pounds. In the very first head-to-head, the player seemed to have it easy as Jenny messed one question in particular up.

Brad delivered the question as he asked: “As of 2023, what was the fee for having a star on the Walk of Fame?” The possible answers were $750, $7,500 or $75,000. The player locked in her answer pretty quickly, but Jenny seemed to take a moment to contemplate.
It was revealed that Susan chose the higher cash amount as her answer, as she explained: “I’m going high. I think those people can afford it.” Bradley shot her down as he said: “I don’t think it’s that. I think it’s B [$7,500].”
He then unveiled that the player was actually correct with her answer of $75,000. He applauded the player saying: “Well played, one step closer from home,” before showing that the Chaser had thought the same as him – getting the answer wrong. However, she did not explain the reasoning to her thinking.

Fans at home could not believe it, and some felt like they had learnt something new while others branded it “ridiculous”. Posting to X/Twitter, one wrote: “Buying your own star on the walk of fame ridiculous #thechase.”
Another added: “Well I never knew you paid for a walk of fame star!! You learn something new everyday! #TheChase,” to which one more replied: “It’s the equivalent of the blue tick on Twitter. Fame is a tradeable commodity now #TheChase.”
A fourth shared: “Ridiculous answer. #thechase.” Someone else hit out at Brad, as they fumed: “Shut the f*** up Brad,you know f*** all. #TheChase”
The Chase airs on ITV and ITVX from 5pm each weekday
