Viewers of The Chase were left gushing when not only did Bradley Walsh welcome four contestants, but a fifth in the form of an adorable dog, too.

Emily joined her fellow contestants accompanied by her guide dog, ready to take on Mark 'The Beast' Lambert.

She put in a good effort and impressed viewers during the cash builder round, but it seems the people at home were more concerned with her gorgeous Golden retriever, April, who stayed loyally by her side.

After spotting the four-legged friend, viewers rushed to Twitter to praise April for managing to stay so calm under the bright studio lights with so much chaotic noise.

April's appearance went down a treat with viewers, but others were just totally distracted by how much her fellow contestant Matt, looked like The Beast. Their similarities included the haircut, the build and definitely the quizzing ability.

One viewer questioned: "Are The Chase just ignoring the fact this guys looks like The Beast? #TheChase," while another added: "Um, does this first contestant look like he's related to the beast, or is it just me? #TheChase." Apparently not.

The Chase continues on ITV at 5pm on weekdays.
