The Chase contestant has fans making unavoidable Liverpool link

Fans of The Chase were convinced a contestant on today's show looked like a member of The Beatles.

Four new quizzers appeared on the ITV gameshow and took on Chaser Paul Sinha in a bid to win a cash prize.

First up was Kenny, a singer/songwriter from West Lothian, who wanted to win some cash to fund a trip to Nashville - renowned as the capital of the world for live music.

The 63-year-old plays in a band inspired by The Fab Four - and fans of The Chase were quick to point out on Twitter that Kenny had also based his look on music icon Paul McCartney.

Mike said: " Bloody hell. Thought it was Paul McCartney for a moment. #TheChase"

Another added: "Who’s he a wannabe Paul McCartney #thechase"

A third commented: "Paul McCartney's ageing well! #TheChase"

A fourth questioned: " McCartney impersonator?"

Kenny built up £2,000 in the cash-builder and this led Paul Sinha to threaten that the Beatles song that will sum up his performance would be Hello, Goodbye.

The prediction unfortunately proved to be true as the Sinner-man caught the wannabe Beatle when he was two steps away from home.

The Final Chase featured fellow contestants Sinead and Gifton testing their wits against the Chaser for a grand total of £11,000

The team built up 16 steps but were caught by Paul Sinha with 33 seconds remaining.

The Chase returns Monday at 5pm on ITV and ITVHub
