00:00These four people have never met before, but by working as a team, they have the chance to win thousands of pounds.
00:06There's just one thing standing in their way. The chase up. The chase is on.
00:19Hello and welcome to The Chase. Today's team of four total strangers believe they have what it takes to beat one of Britain's finest quiz brains and take home thousands of pounds.
00:28Hmm, let's meet the team.
00:31I'm Geraldine. I'm 60. I'm a retired barmaid from Hartlepool.
00:35I'm Keith. I'm 54, a manufacturer sales agent from Amersham.
00:40I'm Peter. I'm 26, a planning officer for Middlesbrough.
00:43I'm Jen. I'm 30. I'm a solicitor and I'm from London.
00:47Well, there they are. Now, one by one, they'll bring as much money as they can down the table and into the team prize fund.
00:54But as always, hunting them down every step of the way is the chaser.
00:57Anyone who gets caught, of course, loses their money and is out of the game.
01:01Make it back safely, though, and they will go through to the final chase with a chance to win an equal share of the total prize fund.
01:07First to face the chaser, it's Geraldine.
01:13Hi, Geraldine.
01:14Hi.
01:14You're from Hartlepool.
01:15I am.
01:16Retired barmaid.
01:18Yes.
01:19Right, now, what would you do with the winnings if you won it?
01:21Go to Egypt.
01:22To see the pyramids?
01:23Yeah. Right on a camel.
01:24Yes, indeed.
01:25Right, quickfire questions against the clock.
01:27Each correct answer is worth £1,000.
01:29I wish you luck, Geraldine.
01:31Your time starts now.

02:06Star Wars.
02:06Yes, correct.
02:07Brenda is Private Eye Magazine's nickname for who?
02:11Um...
02:11Oh, I can't think.

02:31Which American duo had hits with Mr...
02:33Time's up.
02:35Geraldine, you've got £3,000.
02:37I can't get that much.
02:39Well, we have to get you and that money through to the final chase somehow.
02:42So, who will you be up against?
02:44Will it be top criminal barrister, Sean Wallace?
02:49He really is a laugh a minute.
02:51Unfortunately, we missed that minute.
02:53Or will it be Mark Lebet, the Beast?
02:56He's got an appetite for destruction and pies.
03:00Or will it be Anne Hegarty?
03:02Just one look at her and you'll think ITV have brought back the wrestling.
03:07Geraldine, guess what?
03:08It's time to bring on the chaser.
03:10It is indeed the Dark Destroyer, the barrister himself.
03:20It's the laugh a minute.
03:21Sean Wallace.
03:22Good afternoon, Geraldine.
03:25Good afternoon, Sean.
03:26So, you want to go to Egypt, do you even ride a camel?
03:29I do, yes.
03:30I've got bad news for you because I've got the hump.
03:32I love it.
03:34Geraldine, as always, three steps ahead of our chaser.
03:37If you want to take a step closer to home, the chaser will offer you...
03:40£1,000.
03:40However, if you want to take a step closer to the chaser, he will offer you...
03:46If you want to see those pyramids, £12,000.
03:49Not bad.
03:51Have a chat with your team.
03:54You're good enough to beat him.
03:56£3,000 you can do easily.
03:57If I was you, I'd go for the £12.
03:59He said he's got the hump, so I think you've got him here.
04:01Yeah, just have confidence in yourself.
04:03He's got the hump.
04:03He's got the hump because he's scared of you.
04:08He don't look scared.
04:09Thank you, team.
04:12So, what do you think the decision is yours, of course, Geraldine?
04:14I'd love to go, but I'm not confident enough.
04:17I think I'll stick at the £3,000.
04:18OK, darling, that's no problem at all.
04:20I'm not even confident about that.
04:20Sticking at the £3,000, that's very good.
04:22Chaser?
04:23Probably a wise decision.
04:24Well, who knows?
04:25Let's get that money home, shall we?
04:27For £3,000, the chase is on.
04:35And good luck to you.
04:36Here comes your first question.
04:39Which of these events happened first?
04:43Was it A, Harry Potter published, B, Atlanta Olympics, or C, Queen Mother turned 100?

04:56I can remember the Atlanta Olympics, and it seems a long, long time ago.
05:02All right.
05:03Correct answer is...

05:07Very good.
05:08Step closer to home.
05:09The chase was put.
05:12Yeah, he knows his stuff.
05:13So, the Atlanta Olympics was?
05:151996.

05:55Here we go.
05:56Correct answer is...

06:03are.
06:04The chaser has put...
06:06Yes, The Aneedin Line, the closest that gap.
06:09It's a fantastic series.

07:25Is he A, a lawyer, B, a schoolmaster, or C, a judge?
07:31You've put...
07:32A schoolmaster.
07:34Happy with that?
07:35Yeah.
07:35Big Dickens fan?
07:37Well, yeah, I've read quite a lot of Dickens, yes.
07:39Yeah, brilliant, isn't it?
07:40Good name as well for a school teacher, Wackford, isn't it?

09:29And how much would you need for that?

09:32Good luck with that, Keith.
09:36However, we've got to build up some cash.
09:38It may not be 40 grand at this precise moment in time, but let's make sure we get it to the table and then see where you get dealt up, because that might be 40 grand.

12:09I'm going for £40,000.
12:11I admire your chutzpah.
12:13OK.
12:14Chaser.
12:15He's my type of player.
12:16Yeah, mine too.
12:17Well played, partner.
12:18Let's take him down.
12:20Now then, Keith, good luck.
12:22For £40,000, the chase is most certainly on.
12:30It's gonna be good.
12:32Come on, mate.

13:48Also Collie.
13:49There was more than one, I guess.
13:51There must have been.
13:51Oh, yeah, there was more than one.
13:52Yeah.

15:10The chaser's put.
15:14Thomas Jefferson.
15:15And also got it wrong.
15:16They tore the bounce.
15:17It's unbelievable.
15:18We've hit it towards the bounce.
15:19You've gone for a catch.
15:20You're looking up and you've gone...
15:22And it's just straight in the back of the head.
15:24That's what's happened there, love.
15:26Absolutely not.

15:51Right, B.
15:52Oh, boom bang a bang.
15:53You know what?
15:54I think you're right.
15:55I think it was Lulu.
15:56I think it was.
15:58And Lulu was in the 60s.
15:59Yes.
16:00Fizz was in the 70s.
16:01Yes.
16:02Oh, yes, Keith.
16:04The correct answer is...
16:07Oh.

16:12Two to go with 40k.
16:15Has he got it right?
16:16The chaser was put.
16:18Also boom bang a bang.
16:20All right.
16:21He's three steps behind us, and we've got 40 grand, and we're two from home.
16:25It's unbelievable.
16:26Here's the next question.
16:27Which of these famous men did not have the middle name Spencer?
16:35A, Henry Moore.
16:37B, Harold Macmillan.

16:53I feel that he had a longer middle name, but I can't remember what it was.
17:00The correct answer is...
17:02Oh, Keith, you're playing a blinder here, mate.
17:09The chaser has put.
17:14Always put the right answer, which is Harold Macmillan.
17:16Because his real first name is Morris.
17:18Morris Macmillan.
17:20That's got a better ring to it, actually.
17:22Mo Macmillan.
17:23One more right answer, and we're home and drive.
17:25A 40k.
17:26Here's your next question.
17:28Which of these countries won the Football World Cup first?
17:32A, Argentina.
17:34B, Brazil.
17:35C, England.
17:40You put Argentina.
17:45I have a feeling they may have won it in 34.
17:50Or it could have been Italy by the time.
17:52Okay.
17:53I'm talking myself out of this.
17:55Got to be right.
17:56Correct answer is...
17:59Brazil.
18:03Now, is he going to close the gap?
18:05Correct answer being Brazil.
18:06The chaser was put.
18:09Yes, at last he gets one right.
18:12Italy won it in 34 and 38.

21:18Good afternoon, Peter.
21:32Good afternoon, Sean.
21:33Another impressive performance.
21:36Pity about you.
21:36Pulling him off his stride.
21:38That's what we need.
21:39Let's put some money on the table.
21:41There's your £7,000.
21:42Now then, if you want to take a step closer to home, the chaser will offer you...
21:45£1,000.
21:47Oh, £1,000.
21:48However, if you want to take a step closer to the chaser, he will offer you...

21:55Excellent stuff.
21:56OK, time to have a chat with your team.
22:00Thank you, guys.
22:01Well, you were awesome.
22:02You've got £7,000 there.
22:04That £20,000, you're going to be like plucking a ripe apple off a tree.
22:08I'm surprised he didn't offer you more, but he mostly hasn't got the cojones to do it.
22:12He's scared you to get beaten again.
22:14Yeah, you've been brilliant.
22:15He's not really on his day.
22:16I think you can do it.
22:17Thank you, team.
22:19So, your decision, though, what would you want to do?
22:22I was tempted to go for the higher offer, £20,000.
22:27Obviously, it's a lot of money, but I think I'll stick with the £7,000.
22:29All right, £7,000 it is.
22:30Thank you very much.
22:31Chaser.
22:32My decision.
22:35Peter, are you ready?
22:36I am indeed.
22:37And wish you luck.
22:37That's £7,000.
22:39The chase is on.
22:44Good luck.
22:45Here comes your first question.
22:48Which explorer was mayor and MP for Plymouth?
22:53A. Walter Reilly.
22:55B. Francis Drake.
22:57C. John Cabot.
23:04You have put...
23:07Francis Drake.
23:08Yes, I think, under pressure, I was getting confused between Walter Reilly and Francis Drake.
23:15No, it's not John Cabot.
23:17Correct answer is...
23:18Well played.
23:21Step closer to home.

24:30So, just another guess.
24:32Right.
24:33Correct answer is...
24:36Squirrel.
24:37Ouch.
24:38Staying where you are.
