The Chase fans all think the same thing as one player offers advice

Fans of tonight's The Chase all thought the same thing as one player gave advice to another.

Pete, Nuvuyo, Joan and Nik all fancied their chances at winning a cash prize as they went up against chaser Anne Hegerty, also known as The Governess.

Pete and Joan were soon caught by the quizmaster and sent home empty handed, leaving just Nubuyo and Nik to play for the prize.

Novuyo, a 28-year-old social media editor, only managed to correctly answer four questions in her cashbuilder round. She went on to accept a lower offer from the Governess of £1,000.

Fans weren't impressed with one players advice on The Chase (ITV)

As usual the low offer sent Twitter into a frenzy, but it only got worse as the Londoner later offered advice to fellow player Nik.

Nik, a graphic designer from Sheffield, did a bit better in his cashbuilder round answering six questions correctly.

When conferring with his team on what to do, Nuvuyo advised him to go for the middle offer of £6,000, rather than the lower offer like she had done.

Fans on Twitter all disproved of her actions as they took to the social media platform to share the same thoughts.

Steve said: "New rule: people who take low/minus offers should be banned from giving any opinions to other contestants on what they should do. Hint, hint... #TheChase"

Paul said: "Going low is one thing, sometimes it works, but it really irritates me when they go low and then tell others to go high or for middle offer before offering absolutely nothing in the final chase."

Michelle said: "How can she tell him to go for the 6k when she turned down 4k in favour of a grand??!! #TheChase"

Nik successfully went on to secure his place in the final alongside Novuyo as they played for a total of £7,000 but between them only set 10 questions for Anne to answer correctly within the two-minute time limit.

They managed to get one pushback which they answered incorrectly and The Governess stormed through the remaining questions with 59 seconds to go.

The team went home empty handed.

The Chase airs weekdays at 5pm on ITV and ITV Hub
