Joe Swash brought home an incredible amount of money on The Chase as he destroyed The Beast in the head-to-head.

All of the contestants impressed The Beast with their knowledge in the cash-builder.

In the head-to-head against Mark, the former EastEnders actor chose to gamble his winnings for £47,000.

The Beast said: “Joe Swash scored seven - now I’ve seen everything.

“If Joe Swash takes me for £47,000 my colleagues will never let me forget it.”

However, Mark was made to look a fool as Joe smashed the head-to-head, answering every single question correctly.

Joe said: “Yes, you know what half of them were guesses”, leaving The Beast speechless.

In the final chase, the contestants won an incredible £120,000 for charity.
