Annoys me when the chasers throw battles.


For instance whenever there's one player left and nobody prior has won any of their battles, the contestant could even pick the high offer, and the chaser will throw the battle just so one person could be in the final chase. They will always answer a couple wrong and make up some BS reason why they got it wrong. They hide it as good as they can, but to me it's obvious.

A flaw in the format I suppose - what to do if there's a chance nobody can get into the final chase?

I saw a charity edition where Mark threw the final chase. That was understandable, but in the normal ones where people play for money for themselves, I hate it when I see that.

OK, last night I saw for the first time all the players losing before final chase. The last player took the high offer, and the chaser did 'get' a couple of wrong as I thought he would, but still caught him. I guess how it works is with the last player they will give a couple of free chances rather than throw the battle necessarily.

It's still not totally honest though .

I guess they dont know if the player will get it wrong as well.

But i cant imagine all 4 players being beaten
