During Neil's cash builder round, Bradley was taken aback by the dancer's incorrect answer and struggled to ask the remaining questions without laughing.

This sparked a roar of laughter from the studio audience and short giggles from Bradley as he attempted to get through the round.

A confused Neil thought Bradley was laughing over his final answer before the 64-year-old repeated his hilarious response.

While Bradley pretended to remove an invisible thong and clean his teeth with it, Richard joked: "He's got big gaps in his teeth."

Viewers even took to social media with their reactions as @SocialMediaJon1 remarked: "Apparently Neil Jones thinks people floss their teeth with thongs."

A second fan added: "That was a classic Chase moment there. Well done Neil Jones."

@Southerncazz1 also poked fun at the moment and shared Sisqo's 1999 hit Thong song with a load of laughing emojis.
