No. Of Correct Answers By Chaser

The number of correct answers given by each chaser across all the episodes they have appeared on. ie. in the head-to-heads and in the final chase. In a head-to-head, if the player gets home, we do not see what answer the chaser put for the final question, and don't know for sure if they got it right or wrong - so obviously the table doesn't include these.

Note:

The Perfect Show

When the chaser answers every question correctly throughout a single episode. Although, it's actually hard to verify this. Firstly, because we don't get to see the chaser's answer on the final head-to-head question when a player gets through. Secondly, because 0-0 head-to-head questions sometimes get edited out due to time constraints.

Most Correct Answers By Players - Series 1 To 5

The number of correct answers given by each player across the entire episode they appeared on. ie. in the cash builder, in the head-to-head and in the final chase.

As can be seen on other Statistics pages, both the average cash builder and the average target for series 1-5 were considerably higher than the averages for series 6 onwards. So this list only shows players from series 1 to 5.
