Chaser in disbelief as Dark Destroyer gets question wrong

Beat the Chasers stars were shocked tonight when the Dark Destroyer got a question wrong.

Host Bradley Walsh asked the question: "Portishead and Pulp were 90s winners of what UK music prize?"

Shaun Wallace, also known as the Dark Destroyer, answered the question incorrect by saying 'the Turner prize, however the right answer was the Mercury Music Prize.

All of the fellow-Chasers winced and pulled annoyed faces and Jenny Ryan threw her hand in the air in frustration.

Chaser Darragh Ennis, also known as the Menace, was live tweeting alongside the show.

Speaking about how the competition went, he said: “The Turner Prize? Lucky for Shaun he's at the other end of the table!”

One viewer replied to Darragh with a picture of the faces Anne Hegerty and Jenny Ryan pulled when Shaun Wallace got the question wrong.

@hom3rjfong said: “Jenny and Anne’s reactions were amazing at that incorrect answer” with a laughing face emoji.

Jenny Ryan then replied: “TFW "WTF?" #BeatTheChasers”

TFW is thought to mean ‘that feeling when’ and WTF commonly stands for ‘what the f***’.

On the show, fellow- Chaser Mark Labbett, also known as The Beast, said: “I love Shaun to pieces but Turner prize!?”

Jenny Ryan told host Bradley Walsh: “It’s a good job he’s a long way from me.”

To which Mark Labbett replied: “Yeah that’s why they put me here because I can cope with being thumped by her.”

Another fan @Tellers_Alpaca added: “I'll always love the annoyed faces of the other chasers when one if them gets a question they knew was wrong.”

While @burgylane commented: “Jennies face , if looks could kill.”
