The Chase

Hosted by Bradley Walsh, four contestants answer general‑knowledge questions and collaborate as a team in each episode. Together they confront the ruthless quiz expert known as the Chaser, striving to outwit him and secure a cash prize for the group.

Bradley Walsh fronts a quiz‑style programme in which four contestants take part in a single episode. The show is built around a straightforward premise: a host guides a small team through a series of questions, with the ultimate aim of winning money. During the first part of the episode the four participants answer a range of general‑knowledge questions. Each query tests the players’ breadth of information, and they are encouraged to pool their knowledge, helping one another to arrive at the correct answers. Their cooperation is a key element, as the format relies on the group working together rather than competing individually. Once the initial questioning round is complete, the team turns its attention to the programme’s resident quiz expert, the Chaser. Described as a ruthless quiz genius, the Chaser presents a formidable obstacle that the contestants must overcome. The showdown pits the collective effort of the four players against the Chaser’s sharp intellect and quick recall, creating a tense but collaborative contest. If the contestants manage to outwit the Chaser, they secure a cash prize. The reward is awarded only after the team successfully navigates the Chaser’s challenge, reinforcing the show’s emphasis on teamwork and shared triumph.
