The Mirror has reported that the show - which gives contestants the chance to go home with a big pay cheque, included a question that stumped the Chaser so much that they had to pass.
When asked “Kirrin Island is the setting in books by which children’s author?” the Chaser was forced to pass on the question.

Another question they weren’t able to answer was “Sophie Ellis-Bextor beat which Spice Girl to Number One in 2000?” The answer was the woman of the moment, “Victoria Beckham”.

The Chase is a popular game show that gets a regular audience of three to five million people and has become one of the most successful and longest-running game shows on UK television.
The show includes multiple rounds with the first being the “cash builder” where the contestants have one minute to answer as many questions as they can.
The Chase UK host Bradley Walsh with Anne Hergerty, aka, The Governess.
After the first round, they move to the “head-to-head” round where they have to answer questions while competing against the chaser.
The contestant can then choose a high or low offer before moving to a seven-step board to answer more questions. If they answer wrong, the chaser has the chance to eliminate them.
If the contestant gets through the difficult rounds, they move to the final chase where a group of contestants work together to answer as many questions as they can in two minutes.
Once their time is up, the Chaser does the same and if the Chaser gets a question wrong, the contestant is given the chance to give another answer.
