A new mystery expert will be joining the line-up of Beat the Chasers tonight. ITV has added a masked boffin to the cast of the quiz show spin-off.
The latest season of The Chase’s sister series is set to come to an end this evening. In a big twist, there will be a new face on the line-up - well, a masked one at least.
Fans are attempting to guess the identity of this mystery new figure. But what can you expect?
When is Beat the Chasers on today?
The quiz show will finish up its latest run of episodes on ITV1/ STV on Sunday night (October 19). Beat the Chasers is set to start at 8pm tomorrow and will run for an hour.
It will be followed by the latest episode of Frauds. The preview for the episode, via Radio Times, reads: “Bradley Walsh hosts as a mystery chaser called Maverick joins the usual panel of experts as more contestants from across the UK take on Jenny 'the Vixen' Ryan, Anne 'the Governess' Hegerty, Shaun 'the Dark Destroyer' Wallace, Mark 'the Beast' Labbett, Paul 'the Sinnerman' Sinha and Darragh 'the Menace' Ennis.
“Who is behind the mask, and can they live up to being a part of the greatest quiz team in the world?”
It has been reported that Darragh will be absent for the episode on Sunday.
Beat the Chasers fans ‘unmask’ the new chaser
Shaun Wallace shared a clip with ‘Marverick’ on social media and encouraged his followers to try and work out his identity. He wrote: “But who is he? Do you know?”
They have certainly taken the bait and tried to piece together who it could be. One suggested: “Think it looks like Anton Du Beke but I’m not sure how good he is at quizzes, he would do well with music and dancing and celebrities.”
