The Chase’s Mark ‘The Beast’ Labbett punches the wall as he storms off after losing to contestants
THE Chase's Mark 'The Beast' Labbett proved just how much he hates losing - by punching the wall as he stormed off the show.
Brainbox Mark, 54, got beaten by two contestants on the ITV teatime quiz last week, leaving some fans fearing for the furniture.
One tweeted: "That set is being held together with duct tape, superglue and Blu-Tack - it can't take another hit!"
Most were delighted with the meltdown, with one viewer giggling: "The Beast throwing a strop."
Another wrote: "Would be brilliant if all 4 contestants took back the high offers and beat the chaser mark labbett the Beast, Mark would prob punch down the studio."
He bungled questions about EastEnders' Aunt Sal, where Canvey Island is, and the name of Africa's second-longest river - leaving him fuming.

The Beast did politely congratulate Ian and Lynn, telling them: "Well played team, you deserve it" before getting out of his seat growling.
He was then seen hammering a fist into the side of the wall as he stormed out.
The Chase host Bradley Walsh, 59, told the players: "Oops, I think he's a little bit upset. He's furious.
"For those of you who think it's all part of the show, it isn't. He is furious - and has stormed off."
He then gestured to the empty chair where the Chaser would normally be seated at the end of the game.
It's not the first time Mark has hammered the set after storming off - he punched a wall in a fit of rage and stormed off set after getting a question wrong in 2017 too.
He later joked to The Sun: "It was better to hit that than hit Bradley."
