The Chase Around the World viewers fume show is 'milked to death'

The Chase Around the World returned with a bang, but the latest instalment left viewers with one burning complaint. Bradley Walsh fronts the new ITV game show, which looks to be a cross between the ITV game show and the BBC's Race Across The World.

The hour-long special sees six pairs of contestants travel through Barcelona before racing to the finish line. After being tasked with a series of puzzles and questions along their journey, they have to be accurate to progress to each checkpoint. The final team met Bradley at the finish line, where they went up against Chasers Jenny 'The Vixen' Ryan and Darragh 'The Menace' Ennis.

But just minutes into the programme, viewers urged ITV bosses to make this the final spin-off of the daytime quiz show. One X user penned: "Never seen a TV show milked to death like The Chase... 'How can we do the show but also get paid to travel around the world with it? I've got an idea!'."

Another agreed: "This version of The Chase is painful. ITV in future, please stick to tried, tested and very successful version of The Chase." A third chimed in with: "Really not sure about this Chase Around the World. The attraction of The Chase or Beat The Chasers is that you can play along at home."

"Whilst you can do that in this too, there's too much time in between questions and why would I wanna watch people running around Barcelona. If you're going to bother with this, record it and whizz through the adverts (and most of the cobblers)."
