The team then played for 60,000 and bagged an incredible 22 steps ahead of the Chaser.

It was a close race, however, The Beast beat the team with just six seconds remaining.
He exclaimed: “Yes! What a tremendous team that was. You can see how happy I am. There’s nothing better than beating a good team.
“James, don’t beat yourself up because I had five seconds left and that’s easily one question for me.”
Viewers were gutted for the team and shared their thoughts on Twitter.
What did they say?
One person said: “Omg I cannot BELIEVE they lost 60 grand with 6 seconds to spare.”

Mark bagged an incredible 9,000 in his cash builder while Gill brought back 3,000 and Peter 1,000.
Mark answered most of the questions during the Final Chase and the team bagged 18 steps.

The Chase returns to ITV, Monday, April 6, at 5pm.
