In the new episode of Chain reactionthe game show hosted by Pino Teach on Rai 1the new arrivals, i Skip Five (Antonella, Francesco and Marco), challenge the reigning champions, the Blondie (Claudia, Simonetta and Patrizia), but with poor results, because the three women manage to maintain their title, however, halving the prize money several times during the Last Chain and also losing the little money left by getting the final word wrong. But let’s see together what happened live in last night’s episode.
Chain Reaction, episode 21 June 2024: what happened
After showing the video of the win monsters (114 thousand euros) of the Blondie on Thursday 20 June, with the latter still in disbelief, Pino Insegno kicks off the match which sees the Salta Cinque give the champions a hard time, who however once again demonstrate their skill, in particular Claudia , who immediately guesses, at the first clue of “When, where, how and why”, the last word to find – “Fur” (in the egg) -, so much so that Pino Insegno: “I wanted to tell this story. Dear Claudia, why ‘fur’? Are you precise?“. The competitor then replies: “No, my husband is, he is Virgo“. “Oh sure, shall we call the husband?“. Then he asks if Simonetta’s spouse is also fussy and she replies: “No, he’s a Cancer!“.
If in the “One leads to another” round both teams give their best by guessing even complex words, the Zot that the Blondies have to answer is very easy (scoop and 7+ = vote) and in fact the three women get 10 seconds more than opponents who play Winning Agreement with only 55 seconds available and lose by guessing only 7 words. The Blondies, however, find 13 and reach (with a prize money equal to 99 thousand euros) the Last Chain step, a little more difficult than the previous evenings by Pino Insegno’s own admission who towards the end of the game says, seeing the competitors in difficulty, he says: “Don’t be demoralized. I know that today is a chain a little more complex for you, because yesterday you were very good.” It’s a shame that Blondie halved the sum obtained so many times that they reachedlast word with just 3,094 euros. What word does “circle” and “have” in common?brings“? The initials are “But” and the final letter is “And“. Le Blondie focus on “pencils“, but the exact word is “bad“. After a victory, defeat, but Claudia, Simonetta and Patrizia are already ready to face a new challenge this evening, Saturday 22 June, again on Rai 1 at around 6.45pm.
The controversies on social media
As always there is controversy on social media because of the last word, too forced for users’ tastes: “Alright, we’ll get over this circle, headache, with pencils and door handles, a real malaise that brings bad luck. Bah.“, “I have a CIRCLE in my head and it HURTS… [è la spiegazione che dà Pino Insegno, ndr]“, “Bad???????? I understand that they didn’t have to win tonight but at least put two words that look at each other in the face“. And again: “The very forced word”, “Oh well, they had to replenish the coffers tonight“, “What a fucking word tonight“. Then the criticisms of the Last Chain: “From elementary to almost meaningless…“, “Strange chain, suddenly harder. Pino also betrayed himself: ‘Courage, don’t be discouraged because today is more difficult’“, “And oh well, yesterday they won 114,000 euros, but make a whole chain inaccessible it just means that RAI are stingy“, “First chain of medium difficulty after three weeksand”, and finally: “These are good, ergo difficult chain. The previous geese scarce, first grade chain“.
