The Chase viewers left in stitches as Bradley Walsh delivers savage swipe at co-star
The Chase's first contestant of the evening, Martin, was asked to choose which Chaser he'd like to face in a tense battle for a cash prize. Bradley Walsh suggested Darragh Ennis as he mischievously compared him to a dog.
"I haven't seen hairstyles like that outside of Crufts!" the TV host exclaimed. He then went through a list of the other Chasers, making a jibe about which one was "more uptight than Mark Labbett's waistband".
Bradley finally turned his attention to Anne Hegerty, also known as The Governess, promising that she had "friends in high places" - the ones that she was "keeping in her attic". Out of all the quizmasters Martin went up against Darragh but that turned out to be a fatal mistake, as he was knocked out of the competition in minutes.
However, Darragh took the opportunity to get his own back on Bradley soon afterwards, telling the next contestant: "Your Pretty in Pink society might only have one member - but that's still one more than the Bradley Walsh fan club!"
"This is The Battle Of The Dodgy Hairstyles..." one viewer tweeted wryly. Meanwhile, another joked: "That f*****g hairstyle on the chaser!"

He was praised by several Twitter fans, one of whom declared: "None of this snowflake, gender-neutral s*** from #TheChase host!"
Others were keen to know: "Will the postman deliver?"
Sadly he was swiftly knocked off the show within minutes, after blundering during a question about which national president has a wife almost a quarter of a century older than him.

Many viewers would have been cursing with frustration from the other side of their TV screens as he chose Canadian president Justin Trudeau.
"It won't be Joe Biden because [his wife] would be 110!" Martin joked.
However, the correct answer wasn't either of those, as the response which would have netted the money and kept him in the show was Emmanuel Macron.
He'd been hoping to use his prize money to buy an engagement ring for his girlfriend, meaning he was in for a bitter disappointment.
However, Darragh - who was now on a roll with his comebacks - jokingly consoled him: "If you don't win enough money for an engagement ring, you just tell her it got lost in the post!"
The Chase airs weekdays on ITV at 5pm
