The Chase Fans Criticize Easy Final Question

Fans of ITV's quiz show The Chase expressed outrage after the latest episode aired on January 9, claiming the game was unfairly rigged in favor of chaser Jenny Ryan, known as The Vixen. Viewers were particularly incensed by a question posed to Jenny during the final chase: 'What term refers to knives, forks, and spoons collectively?' which she answered correctly with 'cutlery.' Many criticized the simplicity of the question, with comments on social media suggesting it was too easy for a chaser of her caliber, leading to accusations of the game being fixed. Despite starting off shaky, Jenny managed to defeat contestants John and Tracy, who had answered 17 questions correctly, by just seven seconds. The episode featured other competitors, including 19-year-old Anousha, who also fell short against Jenny. Fans took to platforms like Twitter to voice their frustrations, reinforcing the sentiment that the game was unfairly structured against the contestants.
