There was drama on The Chase tonight as a contestant controversially opted for a minus offer, despite £49k being on the table.
Ailsa, Sarah, Kelly and Matt teamed up to take on the Chaser, hoping to win their fair share of the prize pot.
Up first was Ailsa, who secured £6,000 for the group, with Sarah bringing in an additional £5,000.

Kelly was unfortunately beaten in the head-to-head, meaning all hopes fell to Matt to bring more money home.
During his cash-builder, Matt, 27, earned a respectable £5,000.
Upon facing Anne Hegerty, the nurse was given a high offer of £49k and a low offer of -£2,000.
Turning to his fellow teammates for advice, Sarah told Matt: "Take the 49, but don't take the minus two."
And Ailsa added: "If you want to buy a house it's got to be the 49."
However, Matt shocked the studio, when he opted for the -£2,000, saying he wanted to increase his odds of getting to the final.
His move rattled a few feathers, with Ailsa and Sarah pulling faces.
Bradley said: "Ailsa's face is a picture. Do not turn round whatever you do."
And Anne added: "I'd watch your back if I were you."
Matt made it through to the final, bringing down the prize fund to £9,000.
*Tonight's episode was a repeat.
