The Chase player gets marriage proposal after causing a stir

A Chase contestant got viewers hot under the collar on tonight's show, with one even offering a proposal of marriage.

Sam, 23, from Sheffield chatted to host Bradley Walsh before he went up against The Governess, Anne Hegerty, who was tonight's Chaser.

Charity researcher Sam said he wanted to go into international development working in Africa with infrastructure support.

In his spare time Sam said: "I do loads of sports, swim, run cycle and watch a lot of sport and read a lot of the time."

He said he wanted to buy a new car if he won some cash so he wasn't "borrowing my parents all the time."

Sam managed to score an impressive £6,000 in his cash builder with Bradley praising his efforts.

Sam played for the £6,000 but failed to get past Anne in the head to head.

But despite his early exit viewers were quick to comment on Sam's appearance on social media.

LMO said: "WELL HELLO SAM (love heart emoji)"

Leslie costar said: "Sam on #TheChase is super hot."
