THE Chase fans were left infuriated after Bradley Walsh dealt a "below the belt" snub to a contestant.
Wednesday's episode of the popular game show saw Paul Sinha take on a strong team of opponents.
Among those was genetic scientist Rocky, who Paul himself deemed a tough competitor.
He managed to get £6,000 during his cash builder, but fans were soon left stunned after one of his answers wasn't accepted.
It came towards the end of his round, when host Bradley asked: "Richard O'Brien wrote the song Once In A While for what stage musical?"
"The Rocky Horror Picture Show," the contestant replied, before immediately correcting himself to add: "The Rocky Horror Show."

Being the bearer of bad news, Bradley commented: "Sorry, I couldn't give you the picture show…"
"I can't believe I got a Rocky question wrong," he replied, pointing out the irony of his name.
"Of course, yeah," Bradley responded, before adding: "£6,000 though, Rocky, very good, excellent – a good team."
Viewers watching from home didn't agree with the "below the belt" decision, though.
Alongside an array of confused-faced emojis, one person penned: "Just give him the Rocky Horror answer, Bradley!"
Echoing their comments, someone else said: "That Rocky Horror Show question was a bit below the belt!"
