A 19-year-old contestant named Aaban made history on ITV's The Chase, becoming the youngest player to reach the final with a £100,000 offer. Despite ultimately losing to Chaser Shaun Wallace, Aaban received praise from both Walsh and Wallace for his impressive performance.
On ITV's The Chase , host Bradley Walsh was visibly shocked when a contestant broke new ground on the quiz show . The participant, Aaban from Rotherham, didn't win any money, but Walsh didn't hold back on the compliments about their outstanding effort, stating, 'how proud' their family must be. Aaban, at 19, faced Chaser Shaun Wallace alone after his teammates were quickly eliminated.
In a gutsy move, Aaban went for a high £100,000 offer and miraculously bested the Chaser one-on-one to go for the grand prize solo. But ultimately, in the final chase, Aaban could muster only seven correct responses. Wallace, needing just eight to claim victory, caught up in a swift minute. Despite walking away without winnings, admiration from Walsh was plentiful as he encouraged Aaban with, 'You're 19, you're on your own and you just beat a MasterMind champion. Your family will be dead proud of you.' Shaun the Chaser also celebrated Aaban's success, acknowledging: 'You're still a winner. To make TV history as the youngest player to get to the final with that type of money, you should be proud.' Aaban remained upbeat despite not clinching the top prize, expressing his positivity by saying: 'I'm really proud. I didn't think I'd get this far so to come here and make it to the final with £100,000. I don't mind not winning. This is enough.' Show presenter Brad offered consolation, asserting: 'It's not your fault. You are 19 and there were so many questions outside your age remit.' Observing his team's exit he remarked positively: 'You needed a full house, but you're going to go on to do great things.
