The Chase fans left outraged as contestant accepts 'shameful' offer of minus £10,000

The Chase fans were left outraged tonight as one contestant was forced to take a low offer of -£10,000.

Bradley Walsh hosted the popular ITV gameshow with viewers watching from home, who were left appalled by Sally-Ann's choices.

The contestant, who is from Sidcup, Kent, was playing with her teammate Omer.

She was given a low offer of minus £10,000 and a high offer of £60,000.

They already had an impressive £40,000 in the pot.

However her teammate urged her to take the minus offer in a bid to play against The Chaser Paul Sinha.

Omer said to Sally-Ann: "I want you back, there's gonna be stuff that you know that I won't. Take the minus."

She told Bradley: "I'll go for the ten please."

Paul quipped: " Twitter will be furious, they've got no right to be furious. Tactically this is exactly the right thing to do."

And he proved to be right, as viewers flocked to the social media site to share their anger at her choice.

Unfortunately, the pair ended up losing the game to Paul, who had an easy win.

Bradley announced: "Got to take the £30,000. Sally-Ann and Omer go home with nothing."

While Chaser Paul added: "Those are tough old questions and I thought you did really well to hold the pressure."
