The Chase fans baffled by young contestant's Buckingham Palace answer

Fans of ITV's The Chase was left baffled after a young contestant struggled to guess an answer to a question about Buckingham Palace.

On Tuesday, December 3, host Bradley Walsh asked 21-year-old contestant Maddie: "What tune did Queen's Brian May play on the roof of Buckingham Palace in 2002?"

There were three answers available - Up On The Roof, God Save The Queen and Fat Bottomed Girls.

However, Maddie was left confused and explained how she was only two at the time and had no recollection of it and wasn't 100 percent sure. She answered Up On The Roof.

Bradley was quick to correct her and fans flocked to social media in disbelief and many remembered the time when Queen's lead guitarist played on the roof for Her Majesty's Golden Jubilee.

One said: "Oh bless little Maddie."

One person tweeted: "When the “I was only young” card doesn’t work."

A second person appearing to refer to Maddie's age comment said: "I was only two. So what?."

A third added: "Of course he played God save The Queen on the roof of Buckingham palace."

"If her flag goes up because she was two years old in 2002 she has no chance of answering the question on dinosaurs #thechase #beforemytime #iwasntborn," said another viewer.
