In a thrilling episode of The Chase Celebrity Special, aired on October 18, 2023, a team of celebrities competed to secure funds for their favorite charities. The lineup featured former Liverpool goalkeeper David James, journalist Lucrezia Millarini, singer Myles Stephenson, and YouTuber Joe Sugg, all facing off against the formidable Chaser, Paul Sinha, known as the “Sinnerman.”
David James Shines in the Cash Builder Round
David James took the lead, showcasing his quick thinking and impressive knowledge by accumulating £10,000 in the cash builder round. Host Bradley Walsh praised David for his swift responses, making it a memorable start for the team.
The Chaser’s Offers
Following his impressive performance, David faced The Chaser’s offers. Initially, he was presented with three options:
- £10,000 (the amount he had built up)
- £5,000 (to take a step closer to home)
- £100,000 (stepping further away from home)
The Chaser acknowledged David’s strong performance but suggested caution because he was in seat one at the time. This led to intense discussions among the team about which offer to choose.
Team’s Support
Team members voiced their opinions. Joe encouraged David to take the safer route back, while Myles leaned towards the lower offer. Lucrezia expressed her confidence in David’s ability, pushing for the higher amount. She urged him to aim for the £100,000, acknowledging his calm demeanor under pressure.
After considering the options, David decided to go with the £10,000 offer, stating, “Five thousand is fantastic thank you, but I’m gonna go for ten.” The Chaser, slightly disappointed, remarked that it was the highest offer ever given to a seat one contestant.
Successful Outcome
David’s decision paid off. He secured the £10,000 for his team, setting a strong precedent for Myles, who would be next in line to face The Chaser.
This episode of The Chase Celebrity Special provided a thrilling blend of competition and camaraderie, all for a good cause.
