The Chase's Darragh Ennis gives Bradley Walsh a new 'super' nickname

Bradley Walsh was given a new name by Darragh Ennis on The Chase tonight.

Contestants Tony, Steve, Thor and Natasha took on the chaser in a bid to win a cash prize. They went head to head with Darragh to test their wits, as Bradley hosted on the ITV show.

It seemed that the players had been specially chosen, based on their names, to recreate their own team of Avengers. Darragh welcomed the first contestant, Tony, to the show.

He said: "Tony! We seem to have all of the Avengers here - Tony, Steve, Thor, Natasha and of course little Ant Man."

Bradley laughed before he asked: "And who's Ant Man then?" Darragh cheekily replied: "You."

Tony added: "You're the little guy." Bradley said: "I'm never going to get that. That's like regular names isn't it?"

Fans on Twitter thought it was hilarious. Sammi said: "#TheChase trolling Bradley once again with the contestants’ names and him not getting it."

Rory said: "A brilliant set of names on #TheChase today." Michael said: "Anybody else noticed they’ve all got Avengers names? #TheChase."

The Chase airs weekdays at 5pm on ITV and ITV Hub
