Beat The Chasers UK: Jess Takes On All 6 Chasers For £500,000

Series 4 Episode 4

[beng]

30 grand for a 20 second time advantage seemed good enough to me!

[lukeshiel]

I admired Jess's bravely because when I first saw this, I was quite shocked and surprised when she goes for it.

[kenbearsley]

She gave it a go. How many others could stand there in front of 6 people who does that for a living and in front of an audience and answer questions like that within one minute? Fine, there has been a few do it. I'd struggle answering those with a 20 second head start. Hat's off to her for giving it her best

[oliverorchard]

While she did lose, she is the only person currently who can claim that she took on 6 chasers, which is brave.

[jusskb]

"Step aside" 😂😂 bro said i got this

[kweets]

Definitely earned my respect going for that large offer.

[OhSevenGaming]

100k for 13 sec advantage is actually really good

[TRPLE_]

Personally I'd have gone for the £100K. Half a mil would be nice but 60 seconds is very tight!

[DK_Son]

With 29 left on the clock she would have struggled to get one of the lower offers anyway. Such a shame. My heart thumped for her, for sure. I was thinking before the timer started, no matter what happens, I have massive admiration for her choosing that option, and the Chasers and audience obviously respected that as well. This would have been such an incredible win though. Would have loved to see that.

[twrampage]

30, 000 at 40 seconds is what I would've gone for. Could sort out so many of my issues and I'm confident I'd actually win it.

[nintendomal]

I've always wanted to see someone go for the full house of six chasers. Really great effort Jess 🎉

[DanielWright-npfq]

Jess is wonderful. Love her grace under pressure.

[lukecartwrightlff]

Imagine taking on Britain's 6 biggest nerds for 500K with no advantage

[nooobiechild]

The pressure is already high as is when she chose to face all six of them. The chasers saw this as a challenge as well - took less than 3 seconds to answer the first question, and less than 4 on average for subsequent questions (ones that were answered correctly, anyway.) The pressure on the girl probably multiplied itself by when she failed to answer the first time, and then another the second time. When she started shaking her head and smiled to herself she already knew she lost. I believe her train of thought was almost at "Mayflower" when she passed to save time.
Still, major balls of titanium to take on six of them, knowing your chance of winning is probably slim to none. I would've taken the 40-second deal (best value, in my opinion).

[jojobee]

It's not just a game of knowledge. Psychology plays a big part in this game! You give one wrong answer you have to brush it aside and focus on the next question! Like a psychopath with no emotions ~ ice cold !!

[Muzzy]

Good for her ! She probably calculated she wouldn’t win but had a go anyway, so maybe it’s not just greed .

[DoubleWavedYellows]

Fair play for giving it a go. If she had won, she would have gone down in history as the first to win the super offer. Similar to Judith Keppel becoming the first person to win £1 million on WWTBAM.

[Goofy]

4:37 Darragh's face when he knows that question is for him 😂😂😂

[Tronny]

she went for the gusto, props to her! first 20 seconds she did amazingly but would've needed to keep that pace throughout the whole round and essentially not get 1 wrong if she wanted to win, but I guess thats how it goes when theres 500k on the line, also going first definitely does not help. GG
