ITV The Chase fans impressed with 'marvelous' college student

Fans of ITV's The Chase were impressed with a contestant who opted for the higher offer - and walked back to the team with it.

Paul, from Manchester, is a mature college student currently pursuing an access to higher education diploma in order to go to university to study medicine.

After getting an impressive £8,000 in the cash builder round, he went up against the Beast.

The Beast offered him a high offer of £30,000 - and Paul took it.

As he came to his final question, host Bradley said: "You've gone for it, you deserve it."

Paul successfully answered the final question and took £30,000 back to the team.

Fans of the show took to Twitter to heap praise on the student.

Ian said: "Top man! Hopefully no one will go low."

Alan said: "Take a bow Paul"

Kas said: "Bloody marvelous Paul"

Quoting Paul's final question, Dave said: ""Which of these creatures could be described as a bottom dweller?" A person who takes the minus offer on The Chase?"

Paul shared if his team were to be successful and beat the Chaser, he'd like to buy a vintage rolex.
