The Beast Mark Labbett destroys Chase player after arrogant claim

The Beast Mark Labbett was quick to destroy a celebrity DJ on the Chase tonight after he made a bold prediction.

DJ Christian O'Connell appeared on the celebrity version of the ITV quiz show on Tuesday and said he wanted to prove his radio partner Richard and his children wrong as they had no faith in him.

He told host Bradley Walsh that "no one is supporting me" and admitted that his general knowledge was "terrible" unless it was to do with music or film.

Christian managed to get £5,000 in his cash builder and told Bradley he wanted to face The Beast so he could say he had "Beasted the Beast".

Sure enough The Beast came down to the hot seat and Christian decided to play for the £5,000 he had earned.

Christian had a great start in the head to head and was at one point five steps ahead of The Beast.

He started to get cocky at that point but Mark warned him people had been knocked out from the exact same position.

And Christian's game started to come unstuck as he started to get questions wrong, while Mark got them right.

After getting a question about Trumpton wrong Christian was knocked out and The Beast only had one thing to say to him.

He said: "Pugh, Pugh, Barney McGrew, Cuthbert, Dibble and you're out of here."

And viewers were also glad to see Christian go after his arrogant performance.
