The Chase presenter Bradley darted across the studio in hysterics after Shaun made a hilarious TV blunder.
The former Corrie star welcomed four new players, Armin, Sally, Karen and Ryan, on the show for a chance to beat the chaser and walk away with an eye-watering cash prize.
Ryan, 24, was the final contestant to take on the Dark Destroyer.
During the episode, Ryan asked: "What animal was reportedly used to lay cables around Buckingham Palace for the broadcast of Charles and Diana’s wedding?”

He was given the answers: a mole, a ferret and a badger to pick from, to which he chose the ferret.
Bradley quickly teased him about his choice as he laughed: “ Can you imagine a mole taking the cables through?"
He added: "It’s not that, it’s seeing him come through the hole like ‘Where do you want this lad? Anyone got my gloves? Right Baz, put that down… ma’am’.
Ryan argued: "Do you know how big a cable is?" "They used to use ferrets to do that.”

Bradley replied: "Yes, but you know what, they would’ve attached a string for a pull-through.
“You can’t attach - look at that! You can’t attach that to a ferret, by the time the ferret’s gone four feet, he would be like [gasping for breath]."
The host then confirmed that the correct answer was a ferret, but things got awkwardly funny after Shaun's answer was revealed.
The Dark Destroyer’s answer was a mole, and at that point, Bradley couldn’t believe it as he broke out of character and ran off the set in tears of laughter.
While trying to contain his laughter, he clarified with the chaser, who was trying to keep a straight face, that the answer couldn't be moles as they were partially blind.
The contestants could also be seen laughing as Ryan's teammate Karen wiped her tears, and Bradley continued chuckling away.
Eventually, Shaun caught Ryan after a fiery round.
In the final chase, Armin, Sally and Karen had £17,000 in the bank and a three-step head start before going head-to-head with Shaun.

The trio did their best by answering 18 questions correctly.
As the final round ended, it seemed possible that the team would beat Shaun, but with just seconds to spare, he caught them and won the game.
