That was Jennys worst final chase yet.

Not really. Most of the questions she didn't get were either questions before her time or tough medical questions.

She did take out all four contestants to be fair. I like her, but I kind of wanted her to lose, as it might stop people being so unfairly critical of Shaun from now on.

As a top quizzer she is still expected to have a good knowledge of a wide range of subjects, and she knows what sort of questions are likely to get asked on The Chase, so not really an excuse. |

I think Jenny needs to be replaced. When ever she is on I expect the team to win, but to lose to 4 rubbish contestants when the target was just 12, that is embarrassing.
Yesterday's question on the Jewish months of the year was brilliant. Quizmasters should be adding that to their list of questions. |

To be fair to Jenny, she's still bedding in as she has only done a handful of games and only joined the show mid-series, when the others have been there for years
Had a feeling they would roll her out today seeing the chasers have been on top form lately, and so was she to begin with today until that final chase disaster Hopefully she will get on a winning streak soon and the W column will look a bit more healthier before the end of this particular series |

I agree. I think Jenny should be given a fair go.

We also don't know the order they're showing the episodes.
ITV will think that by showing so many loses for Jenny early on will get the press talking. For all we know, she could've filmed 50 episodes and only lost 10 altogether, they might just have shown them in an odd order. |

I agree that, unless she's already contracted for a second series, it's hard to see her being asked back. |

On today's performance she was nowhere near even good contestant level. Yes, she beat them all in the head to heads, but that was one of the weakest teams you're likely to see - and her performance in the final chase against an extremely weak contestant who put her under zero pressure was pitiful

Personally, I would rather see chasers who lose occasionally, like real human beings. Otherwise, it's not interesting.

Is this the first time 4 losers have won the final chase?

Surely, its 26 players, that take the field in a rugby league match, not 13. It would be a bit one sided.

All this Jenny - bashing is a bit unfair. After all, we have only seen her on a handful of occasions to date. When she has done about fifty, we should be in a better position to judge her. Let's face it, most of her detractors know a lot less than her. I certainly don't possess her considerable general knowledge. On today's show she dismissed four contestants and came very close to winning the final chase. Give the poor girl a chance!

Is anyone watching The Chase Australia on Challenge TV? I missed the first episode yesterday, but it appears it will be repeated on Saturday evening. I caught today's episode (ep 2) at 9pm, in which the chaser was Issa Schultz aka The Supernerd! Each ep will be repeated at 3pm next day.
There are 4 other chasers, 2 of whom will be very familiar: Matt Parkinson, Bryan Coverdale, Anne Hegerty and Mark Labbett. The format is exactly the same, except (I think - I will check when I watch the next episode) after the Cashbuilder round the contestant decides straightaway which offer they will take, without asking the others what they think as happens in the UK show. |

When Jenny was 1 away from the target and the 'occipital' question came up, my immediate thought was, well that's it then, everyone knows 'occipital' is the brain ...
well, how wrong can you be ! actually, It crossed my mind the production team match the teams to the chaser, and that maybe that team was expected to lose to Jenny, maybe to improve her stats ? anyway, just love to see Bradley's expression when the contestant makes one of their 'educated guesses' to pretty std general knowledge questions |
