Watched the 1st episode last night, must say it didn't really grab me and think the premise is a bit ridiculous, a faster paced version of the awful Eggheads. Really and truly you'd have to be a genius to beat all 5 chasers on your own, you may have a chance against 2 of them but the money on offer is paltry, to have a go against 5 getting a 5/10 second start they need to put up at least a million surely, thought was disappointing and not a patch on the normal chase format.
It's a cottage industry for some people. No way is this a random selection.
Also, could they squeeze more adverts into the numerous breaks?
Good idea ruined. I'll stick to the original from now on.
One critic called it "fast paced"... he should be sacked.

She did get a 21 second start and only 50k. The one thing you do have going for you as a contestant is that if you take on 4 or 5 of them they do seem to want to hit their buzzer before the other chasers and on a couple of occasions were too quick to get in and didn't wait for the question to finish. Still didn't do much for me on an excitement level, as someone said above Eggheads V Chasers would be good.

this ought to be a lot better show than what it is tbh
the cash builder part for each contestant is virtually pointless because all the value is in taking the higher offers time seems to be far more important than how many chasers they take on imo

I think the money being offered is generous and will be reduced if there is a second series. p.s. kevin and Pat of the eggheads would easily beat any 2 of the chasers

Pat and kevin are in the world top ten quiz rankings,Paul and Anne dont play enough events to get a true ranking,my guess would be 15 to 20. The other 3 Chasers dont play any events,presumably they dont want to be embarrased.

Seems in this format of the show, the chasers are a hinderence to each other. Jumping the gun on questions being a big one. It's like they're in competition with each other at the same time. All for the good of the contestant. If they carry on with it though, they'll get slicker as it continues.

the chasers embarrasing themselves in this new format ,getting beat by extremely average contestants ,although its the clock thats beating them really ,one wrong answer from them and the contestant has massive advantage.

They have a problem in that Bradley is The Chase, but has nowt to do with rights and production and is merely 'presenter' in the credits. When he launched his other show (forget the name) I assumed he wanted a bigger slice of something, like Tarrant.

Chaser is excellent, problem is its on same time as pointless which is also excellent.
Move chaser to prime spot... 4 contestants take on a different chaser, then money winners take on chasers with options to vary money for more chasers might work?
Lock in or whatever? Ki found that a difficult watch too. Chaser is excellent, problem is its on same time as pointless which is also excellent. Move chaser to prime spot... 4 contestants take on a different chaser, then money winners take on chasers
watched the final chase last night. Ptreety good I thought but as as son as I saw and heard her I kind of knew something was up. She got the first question right to stay in and then got the next one wrong imho hoping to get some time but all the chasers knew they were up against a playa. 5 seconds against 5 people and she still won?
I noticed it cost between two or three squid to call and after the Coughing Major shorts I figured they must have the contestants all panned out. I think there are some shenanigans with many of these quiz programmes, particularly on ITV.
