The Chase player smirks as she corrects Mark Labbett

A contestant on The Chase had one over on one of Britain's biggest brains during Friday's episodes.

As ever, Bradley Walsh welcomed four new players - Tom, Sonal, Oliver and Heidi - to the ITV studio. The four had never met before but worked as a team in the hopes of taking home some serious cash.

Tom was up first against Mark Labbett, also known as The Beast. Sadly for him he was caught after his cash builder round and left the studio empty-handed.

Next up was Sonal, from South Wales. She had a decent start, answering five questions correctly, before The Beast made his offers. She said that as Tom had already been sent home she'd better take the £5,000.

When she met Mark he said to her "bore da" - Welsh for "good morning". Sonal smirked as she replied: "It's actually afternoon now", and Mark explained he "hadn't been to Wales for too long".

Sonal told him good afternoon is actually "prynhawn Da", managing to get one over on an extremely knowledgeable quizzer. However, things soon turned around as The Beast caught Sonal and she was forced to say her goodbyes to the team.

The Chase airs weekdays at 5pm on ITV and ITVX
