The Chase's Jenny Ryan tempted fate today with an untimely comment about Darragh Ennis before he suffered a 'nightmare' on the show.
Steve, Rebecca, Ria and Matt hoped that together they could beat the Chaser and leave with thousands of pounds.
Up first, was Steve from West Sussex.

The 53-year-old performed well in his cash builder, earning £4,000.
But Steve was no match for 'The Menace' who eliminated him with ease.
This prompted fellow Chaser Jenny Ryan to tweet: "Well, Darragh's not messing about today is he? #TheChase."
However, this proved to be the 'kiss of death' as things soon went downhill for Darragh.
The second contestant Rebecca, from Bolton, won £4,000 in her head to head after Darragh answered three consecutive questions wrong.
Ria, 38, added a further £7,000 as she eased through the second round.
And Matt, 27, from St Helens won a further £1,000.
His performance saw fans jokingly blame Jenny for 'jinxing' Darragh's performance.
Richard tweeted: "You’ve put the kiss of death on him."
Rebecca tweeted: "Ooft Darragh is having a 'mare today like."
Caitlin wrote: "Jenny jinxed Darragh guys."
Imo added: "Darragh is having a mare."
Michael said: "Rough round for Darragh."
But Darragh made up for his head to head performance in the final as he denied them from winning £12,000 by beating their score of 16.
Darragh admitted to host Bradley Walsh he's had a poor second round: "Yeah, I had a bit of a nightmare at the head to heads getting a lot of questions wrong."
