The Chase fans distracted by Bradley Walsh's outfit as contestant Dante battles Shaun Wallace

The Chase fans were left distracted on Monday by Bradley Walsh’s outfit on the show.

The ITV game show often sees the presenter looking sharp and Tuesday’s instalment was no different, with Bradley appearing in a dark blue suit jacket and a pale pink shirt beneath.

However, Bradley was not the only person who donned this look for the episode as contestant Dante wore almost the exact same outfit in scenes that saw him face-off with the Chaser, Shaun Wallace.

Also donning a dark blue suit and pale pin shirt, Dante was also looking stylish to take on Shaun, albeit with his microphone worn on the opposite side of his lapel to Bradley.

Viewers were very quick to spot the similarities between Bradley’s look and that of Dante and took to Twitter to share their distractions.

One viewer penned: “Twins! #thechase

A different viewer of The Chase shared the GIF of two identical Spider-Men pointing at each other to note the similarities between the outfits.

Meanwhile, another viewer tweeted: “Bradley's just made a new bff in replacement of Shaun lol #TheChase ”.

They also added: “Dantes literally dressed exactly the same as Bradley #TheChase ”.

Sadly, Dante did not prove a strong enough player to beat Shaun Wallace in the all-important chase, as despite grabbing £6,000, he was caught.

One Chase fan noted with a pun: “I predicted Dante would peak to soon... #thechase ”.

Elsewhere, one Dante fan blamed the questions, penning: “ #dantewasrobbed #TheChase those questions for Dante were harder than I have seen before”.

Finally, one The Chase fan concluded: “Dante’s inferno at the moment #TheChase ”.

We see what you did there, guys!

Ultimately, Dante’s teammate Trudy failed to beat Shaun too in the final chase but Shaun did not gloat due to the great game that Trudy played.

The latest episodes of The Chase come as Bradley recently hinted that he would be retiring soon from his showbiz roles.

Speaking to The Sun, Bradley said: “You know what, in a couple of years' time I won’t have to do any of it, I’ll be retired and that’ll be it."

He will soon be seen as a co-host of a new game show for the BBC called Take Off, opposite This Morning star Holly Willoughby, and will also be seen as Pa Larkin in ITV's reboot of Darling Buds Of May, entitled The Larkins.
