Bradley Walsh was at a loss for words during a recent episode of The Chase featuring what could be the oldest contestant to ever play, and even viewers fell for her charm.
On last Thursday's show, Colin, Tom, Ria and notably Margot joined Bradley's team to face Jenny Ryan also known as The Vixen.

The fact it was her birthday further amplified excitement around her participation in the show.
Swift reactions flooded the social media platform, recently renamed X from Twitter, with users complimenting the nonagenarian. One viewer commented: "Margot looks amazing for 90, so glamorous."
Speculation arose amongst viewers, with one querying: "She has to be the oldest person on the show? "
An admirer gushed: "If I live to be 91 I want to be like Margot. Looks amazing and still working. Good on her!"
Another suggested: "#TheChase someone buy Margot a smart TV please - not much to ask for on your 91st birthday glammed up to the nines.", reports the Mirror.
Amused followers flocked to Twitter: a fourth wrote, "Margot (91) possibly the oldest ever contestant? ? Would have been nice if it had given her the big screen tele or at least a birthday cake #TheChase," while a fifth observed: "I hope the TV people threw in a telly for Margot's birthday #thechase."
Bradley was taken with elderly challenger Margot, telling her in play, "I've got to say, it's a thrill having you here. Really, really brilliant!"
Margot subsequently opened up about her compelling history, covering her migration from wartime Germany to East London in 1939, and her intention to purchase a "nice big telly" if she clinched a win.
