The Chase star Shaun Wallace won't take smack talk from anyone - at least not without a response of his own.
Lawyer Shaun formulated the perfect response to theatre-lover Ellen when she reckoned her knowledge might be in areas he wasn't familiar with.
The housing officer told Bradley Walsh that she "loves theatre and drama", and that she's part of a group of actors who recently put on A Midsummer Night's Dream.
And after securing an impressive £4000 in the cash builder, Bradley asked her who she'd like to take on.
"I think Shaun," Ellen said, "Where his gaps are I might have a bit of knowledge."
Little did she know, Shaun was exactly who she was getting - and heard her remark.
Taking his seat, a deadpan Shaun said: "I heard.
"Forget Midsummer Night's Dream, you're about to have a late afternoon nightmare."
The Chase is known for the pre-match big talk between the Chasers, contestants and Bradley.
Today's episode also saw viewers swoon over hunky bartender Josh - reckoning he could be the show's best-looking contestant ever.
"I think Josh was the most stunning contestant I’ve ever ever seen on #TheChase," one gushed, "Such a lovely guy as well."
Another shared drooling emojis and raved: "Josh on #TheChase .... WOOOOOOOOOF."
A third even shot their shot with him, flirting when Shaun caught him: "Never mind Josh. You can come and put my fire out anytime."
A fourth lamented: "awww the cute guy is out never mind sexy josh #thechase."
*The Chase airs weekdays at 5pm on ITV .
