Bradley Walsh confused as Chase contestant asks for £81k but then does something bizarre

A contestant on The Chase turned down a whopping £81,000 confusing viewers.

Jan, Brian, Kevin and Darnisha joined forces hoping to beat Paul Sinha.

Jan started the team off nicely with £3000, while Brian wasn't as lucky and was eliminated from the show.

Kevin managed to add £6000 to the prize pot, taking the team's total to £9000.

Hoping to add to it was Darnisha from Birmingham.

She did fairly well in the cash builder, securing £4000.

Host Bradley Walsh asked Darnisha how much money would The Sinnerman have to put on the table for her to gamble and take the higher offer.

Darnisha joked: "81", leaving Bradley shocked.

However, Paul was in the giving mood today and he offered Darnisha £81,000.

But fans were shocked when Darnisha turned down the huge sum of money - despite asking for it.

India said: "Should have gone for £81k - how many times in a lifetime will that opportunity come up for her? Positivity!"

A second tweeted: "Why ask for something if you don’t want it."

Leigh-Anne wrote: "Lol, so she asks for 81k, Paul offers it to her, yet she wimps out at takes the 4K?!? What was the point in that??"

Haitch added: "If I was offered £81k. I would have gone for it."

And Steve tweeted: "Asked for it. Got offered it. Turned it down. Quite bizarre."
