The Chase

Bradley Walsh presents a fast‑paced quiz in which four contestants answer a series of general‑knowledge questions. The team then confronts the ruthless quiz genius, the Chaser, in a high‑stakes showdown and must beat him to secure a significant cash prize.

Bradley Walsh fronts the programme as its presenter, steering the action from start to finish. The show is produced as a single‑episode format, typical of a quiz‑show series. Walsh introduces the contestants, explains the rules and provides commentary throughout, keeping the pace lively and ensuring the audience understands each stage of the challenge. He also interacts with the participants, blending quick‑fire questioning with strategic decision‑making. In each episode, four contestants face a series of general‑knowledge questions. Correct answers add to a shared cash pool that the team tries to maximise before the final round. After this initial phase, they confront the Chaser, a quiz mastermind famed for his ruthless approach and sharp intellect. Working together, the contestants must answer quickly and accurately to build enough money to challenge the Chaser's expertise. The climax centres on the contestants' attempt to outmaneuver the Chaser and claim the cash they have built. They rely on combined knowledge and coordinated strategy to stop the Chaser from wiping out their winnings. Success means the team walks away with the full prize; failure results in the amount being lost. The tension rises as each answer brings them closer to the final sum, while a single error can give the Chaser an opening.
