Bradley Walsh did something new for the first time during Wednesday's episode of The Chase as he cheered on an impressive contestant.
Mark Labbett, better known as 'The Beast' on the game show, took on Alex, Nicky, Michelle and Joe, a 78-year-old Chelsea pensioner from London who was wearing his full uniform and a few medals.
