ITV's The Chase appeared to have a fairly familiar face the show after a contestant revealed that they previously starred in Coronation Street.
Player number one, Nina, appeared on the popular quizzing programme with a willingness to get through to the final round. But before presenter Bradley Walsh fired a number of questions in her direction, he asked her about her occupation.
Nina revealed that she currently works as a model booker. However, she also told Bradley that she previously worked as an extra on Corrie and appeared on the programme "loads of times".

The host then went on to ask if they both appeared on the soap at the same time. However, Nina informed him that they weren't.
Seeing their interaction, viewers at home also chimed in on the pair's conversation, as some were left questioning Bradley's appearance on Corrie. The presenter starred in the show from 2004-2006 but some viewers were evidently unaware.
Heading over to X, formerly known as Twitter, one fan asked: "#TheChase was brad in corrie?" Replying to the thread, another viewer replied: "Yes – can’t remember the character though."
Meanwhile, another viewer chimed and gave more information. The social media user wrote: "Yes, he played a Baldwin and ran the knicker factory at one point!"
Although Nina got off to a promising start on the show, gaining a respectable £4,000 in the cash builder round, she unfortunately hit a stumbling block when faced with chaser Jenny 'The Vixen' Ryan. Failing to answer more than one question correctly, Nina was sent packing early.
This left the other contestants rather shaken, but this wasn't the case for player number four, Florence. 20-year-old Florence decided to go big when faced with Jenny and opted for the high offer of £65,000.
With the nation behind her, Florence had immense pressure on her shoulders. However, she made sure the pressure didn't get to her as she managed to sail through to the final.
Shocked by Florence's victory, fans headed straight over to X to share their thoughts. One viewer said: "Well done Florence you made a boring game into a game that made me sit up good luck and same for just beating The vicinity."

Another said: "Florence has just done a madness I can’t believe my eyes." While another penned: "It will be such a shame to lose all that money after a miraculous effort from Florence."
With only Florence and player number two Chirs left in the final, the pair had an eye-watering £70,000 to play for. But despite Florence's promising effort it wasn't to be and the pair were beaten by the chaser with seconds to spare.
