Livid The Chase fans accuse Bradley Walsh of 'stitching up' contestant with two sneaky tactics to secure Jenny Ryan's victory
Kerry, Ellena, Alex and Fraser joined forces to take on Jenny AKA The Vixen to get their hands on a hefty cash prize.
Unfortunately the players didn't manage to win the money and Jenny ended up with £61,000.
Those watching at home took to social media to point out two factors that will have helped her succeed.
Some viewers pointed out that Host Bradley Walsh, 65, was asking the contestants much harder questions than The Vixen.
'What a p*** take that was. The questions for the chaser were simple.'

'The Vixen flew through those!'
'Much easier questions for the chaser as per!'
Meanwhile another was convinced that the speed of how Bradley asked the questions changed depending on who he was asking.
'Bradley asked the questions a lot quicker for the chaser than he did for the contestants #TheChase.'
It's not the first time that viewers have been left fuming.
The Chase fans took to social media to share their fury over allegedly 'fixed' questions while watching a recent episode of the ITV show.
Michael, Francine, Amy and Jamie took to screens to take on Mark Labbett, AKA The Beast, in a bid to win a cash prize.
Mark joined The Chase in 2009, but before starring in the programme, he had a very different job as a supply PE and mathematics teacher in Wales.
In the latest general knowledge contest, viewers claimed that the questions being asked were very much geared in his favour, leaving contestants with a difficult battle.
Host Bradley Walsh first asked: 'The International Medal for Outstanding Discoveries in Mathematics is more commonly known as what?'
To which Francine said: 'He knows this doesn't he?'
'Of course he does, he's a mathematician,' Bradley replied.
Moments later, he asked a sports related question which said: 'Which Middle Eastern country played in 2021 Rugby League World Cup?'
And again, Mark knew the answer straight away as Francine confessed: 'Not a clue.'
Unfortunately, she answered incorrectly and was booted out of the competition, while Mark got the correct answer - Lebanon.
Many rushed to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share their frustration over what questions that she had to answer.
Comments included: 'Funny how they give all the maths questions to the maths teacher Chaser. #TheChase.'
'Maths teacher gets maths question….. #TheChase,' with a gif of Cardi B saying 'that's suspicious.'
'Maths question followed by rugby question for the rugby-loving maths teacher Mark.'
'Maths teacher, maths question', alongside a confused face emoji.

Coronation Street to welcome new family who will run Rovers Return Catherine Tyldesley's character Eva Price, who was last seen on the show in 2018, will return alongside her latest partner and his mother, who are both new to the cobbles. (Image: ITV) Coronation Street is to welcome a new family who will run local pub the Rovers Return Inn. Catherine Tyldesley's character Eva Price, who was last seen on the show in 2018, will return alongside her latest partner and his mother, who are both new to the cobbles. Shameless actor Aaron McCusker stars as Eva's partner Ben Driscoll, with Father Ted's Pauline McLynn playing his interfering mother Maggie. Ben's two sons and Eva's daughter Suzie will also be joining the cast. Residents will discover that Eva and Ben are the new landlords in October, more than seven years after Eva stopped pulling pints to start a new life in France with her daughter. Coronation Street producer Kate Brooks said: "We are beyond thrilled that Eva is returning as the landlady of the Rovers, with her new blended family in tow. "The Driscolls do not arrive quietly, so expect big drama, explosive secrets and raucous knees ups galore. To have actors of Catherine, Aaron and Pauline's considerable calibre at the beating heart of this family is absolutely wonderful, and we can't wait for you to get to know and fall in love with them as much as we have already done. "Strap yourselves in, it's going to be an exciting and eventful ride." Article continues below A host of stars have left the British soap this year including Sue Cleaver, who spent 25 years playing Eileen Grimshaw.

Alan Sheehan says Swansea plan to build on buzz of Snoop Dogg becoming co-owner
Alan Sheehan has described the 'buzz' since Snoop Dogg became a Swansea co-owner and explained how the Championship club plan to build on the feel-good factor. The 53-year-old American rapper joined a growing list of celebrity investors in British football last month by becoming part of a Swansea ownership group that already included Croatia midfield great Luka Modric. Multi award-winning Snoop said Swansea's 'underdog' story 'really struck a chord with me' and his vast following on social media – 89 million on Instagram and 20.5 million on X – quickly learned about the Welsh club and his love for Joe's ice cream in the city. 'To have Snoop and Luka on board is a massive benefit,' Swansea boss Sheehan said ahead of Saturday's league opener at Middlesbrough. 'There is a buzz, obviously. As a football club you have to become more appealing commercially, to be more competitive, and appeal to the wider nation. 'It's different to how it was maybe when I was a player, but I understand why, and I totally welcome it. 'Rome wasn't built in a day, but there are big plans for the football club. 'It's about building strong foundations and building that character and resilience within the football club.' Comparisons with Wrexham, who are owned by Hollywood actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, are unavoidable and already being made. The two Welsh clubs are Championship rivals this season after Wrexham became the first team in the top five tiers of English football to win three successive promotions. A docu-series tracking life at Swansea, on similar lines to the award-winning FX show 'Welcome to Wrexham', is understood to be already in the pipeline. Asked if Swansea – who were relegated in 2018 after seven seasons in the Premier League – were the 'new' Wrexham, Sheehan said: 'No, we're Swansea. We're not new anything. 'Now they're in our division, I suppose, it becomes more there now (rivalry), but we don't play them until December. So I won't really be speaking about them until December.' Modric – who joined the board in April following a takeover led by American businessmen Brett Cravatt and Jason Cohen six months earlier – was unveiled as an AC Milan player on Monday after his trophy-littered 13-year spell at Real Madrid ended this summer. The 39-year-old has played his part in Sheehan's summer recruitment strategy, actively persuading players to join the Welsh club. 'Obviously, his transfer situation… he was unavailable to come here,' smiled Sheehan. 'We've had a few text messages and he's involved. 'Luka has spoke to some players, passed on his knowledge, what he knows about the football club, and the plans that we have for it. 'Snoop and Luka are very invested in the club. They care, they speak through the ownership and the ownership are very good to us.' So will Grammy-nominated Snoop soon be swapping California for Swansea to watch a game? 'I believe so,' said Sheehan. 'But I'm not sure which game yet. It would be very naive and narrow-minded to think two very successful people in what they do could not help us. 'Successful people have a lot in common – a work ethic, a grit, a determination to get where they want to get to. So with Snoop, Luka and the ownership there is a lot of positivity around the football club.'
