What did viewers say about The Chase contestant Scarlett?

As they watched at home, viewers rushed to admit they were smitten with her, with some joking they wanted to “marry” her. Others called her The Chase’s best looking contestant ever.

As the episode went on, many at home were impressed with Scarlett’s performance and said she had both “brains and beauty” . They thought she even ended up “holding the team together”.

Another wrote, alongside a string of heart-eye emojis: “Scarlett on #TheChase… MARRY ME!”

“Scarlett’s holding the team together!” someone else said.

“Shut up Scarlett,” tweeted another who clearly wasn’t a fan, adding: “Cocky little madam! #thechase.”

Scarlett did indeed play well as the episode went on. She got an admirable £5k in her cash-builder and managed to evade chaser Mark Labbett and get back to her team.

Unfortunately, The Beast caught them at the end. They set up a score of 16 for Mark to beat. Host Bradley Walsh warned, as he often does, “We’re going to need some push-backs”.

Mark beat them with 12 seconds remaining, denying the team their chance to go home with £15k between them.
