BIZARRE: Itv the chase star unrecognisable as fans floored by incredible weight loss - You Need To See This

Fans of The Chase star Mark Labbett were left stunned as he shared a new snap of himself backstage in pantomime. Mark, who is nicknamed 'The Beast' on the ITV quiz show, floored followers on social media as he posted a picture from behind-the-scenes at the Northwich pantomime Jack and the Beanstalk.

Mark, who is playing the villain Fleshcreep in the show, tweeted a photo of himself holding a Pointless board game based on The Chase's rival BBC show. "This was my secret Santa at the Northwich Panto. I suspect @richardosman," he joked.

But fans were distracted by Mark's weight loss as they commented on how trim he's looking. @gemgem1983 said: "Bloody hell, actually didn’t think that was you and thought it was possibly your son or a relative lol." And @merrymiller123 said: "Almost didn't recognise you, really smashed that weightloss."
