The Chase contestant humiliates Bradley Walsh and Mark Labbett with witty one liner

The Chase contestant Scarlett humiliated host Bradley Walsh and chaser Mark Labbett, AKA The Beast, on Friday's show.

She was asked a question about a Carry On film, which were popular in the 1950s-70s and starred actors including Barbara Windsor.

Bradley and Mark then began quoting famous lines from the comedies, but Scarlett was unimpressed to say the least.

Bradley asked the question: "Harry H. Corbett made his only Carry On appearance in what film?"

Mark replied: "The options were Carry On Spying, Carry On Sergeant, and Carry On Screaming!, with the latter being correct.

"That really did fall perfectly for me, he played what was it, Inspector Knocker of the Yard?"

"Inspector Knocker, yeah, Fenella Fielding, Kenny Williams," Bradley reminisced.

"Kenneth Williams came up with that great line, 'Frying tonight!' his last words," added Mark.

Turning to Scarlett, Bradley explained: "Carry On films.

"I'm sure it was funny at the time," she quipped.

Bradley burst out laughing and high-fived her as the other contestants giggled.

"Good for you! Very good!" Bradley chuckled.

Viewers were delighted at student Scarlett's epic takedown of her older counterparts.

At the end of the round, Bradley shook Scarlett's hand and told her: "Congratulations, well done darling. Well played you, Scarlett."

One tweeted : "I’m glad Scarlett got through. I like Scarlett. #TheChase ".

"Go you, Scarlett!" added another.

"I know I shouldn't laugh, but I did!" quipped another.

""I'm sure it was funny at the time" Me if I was on #thechase too. Only I wouldn't be trying to be funny or insult just something that would come out by accident," remarked a fourth.

* The Chase airs weekdays on ITV at 5pm
