ITV viewers were left stunned when a contestant on The Chase bore a striking resemblance to Britain’s Got Talent star Susan Boyle. During Thursday’s episode, four contestants battled it out for a chance to win money from the cash pot. Mel, the third contestant, impressed with a £4,000 cash-builder round, but fans couldn’t help but notice her resemblance to Boyle. Taking to social media, viewers commented on the similarity, with one person even comparing Mel’s voice to that of Amanda Holden. Despite the comparisons, Mel made it through to the final round.
In a shocking turn of events, the show was unexpectedly pulled from air the day before. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s announcement of a general election on July 4 led to the cancellation of The Chase. Fans of the show expressed their disappointment on social media, with one person stating, “Fuming, where’s #TheChase?” Another viewer urged ITV to prioritize the show over the election coverage. The Chase normally airs on ITV and ITVX at 5pm.
