Both the TV host and the audience went wild as the honest contestant spilled the beans.

Bradley Walsh couldn’t believe his ears

Appearing on Beat The Chasers, the lady in question, Sarah-Jane, a funeral celebrant, left Bradley gobsmacked.

She also thrilled the audience with her blunt admission as she revealed her motives.

Asked what she would do with the money if she won, she told Bradley: “I’m going to pay for my boyfriend to get a divorce.”

“What is going on?” Bradley asked. “This has turned into the weirdest show ever.”

Bradley said to her other half in the audience: “It’s a great gift Andy,” and he nodded and said: “Very generous.”

She then joked, “I’ve got my eye on his pension”.

The funny contestant was just one of the brave members of the public who took on the Chasers in this nail-biting show.

Hosted by Bradley Walsh, viewers get to see contestants and Chasers go head to head.

In the Cash Builder round, the contestants face five multiple-choice questions and have the chance to bank up to £5,000.

But if they get the first question wrong – they’re out.

The contestants are then given the option of playing against two, three, four or all five Chasers.

The higher the number of Chasers they go against, the more money is up for grabs.

If a contestant gets a question wrong the clock counts down until a question is answered correctly.

Earlier in the week The Chaser player Alex ran off stage screaming after she was offered a huge £100,000 prize – and thrashed the Chasers.

Beat The Chasers starts tonight and airs every night this week at 9pm on ITV.
