Thanks @Mi-Amigo. Well done all.

@Mi-Amigo, does your reference book give you the NAME of the Chaser?

Re: White Room Quiz Wed 01 Jan 2025 - The Chase Challenge

pgn — Fri, 03 Jan 2025 08:33:28 GMT

I guess the Chaser is only human too...

Good quiz, @Mi-Amigo and well done all!

Thank you @Cleoriff @pgn @TallTrees

Pleased you enjoyed the quiz, well done on your awards and you now have bragging rights to family and friends that you beat a Chaser.

The questions were taken from the official The Chase Quiz Book, but unfortunately does not give the name of which Chaser got which question wrong.
