The Chase host Bradley welcomed four new contestants onto the ITV quiz show but only Lyndsey and Jonny managed to make it through to the Final Chase. The pair went up against Paul Sinha, also known as the Sinnerman, who had been on top form throughout the episode. However, he made several slip-ups which led to the pair taking home the prize money.
Lyndsey was second to face the chaser this evening and despite struggling at points, she secured £7,000 for the team in the final round.
But it was Johnny who impressed viewers as he opted for the higher offer of £73,000.
Fortunately, he managed to outrun the chaser in the head to head and joined Lyndsey in the Final Chase.
The pair only answered 16 questions correctly so things didn’t look too good for them.

Johnny added of his win: “I can’t believe it. It’s just ridiculous.”
The Chase fans rushed to Twitter to comment on Johnny and Lyndsey’s win, with one tweeting: “What an episode! Seriously well done to Jonny and Lyndsey, incredible amount of money to win #thechase.”
Another added: “Everything thinking that was a single handed win for Johnny might want to look again at how many Lyndsey answered that he’d no clue on.
“It was good steady team play. #TheChase.”
