A UK game show contestant's answer has made waves in the online LEGO community, hitting almost too close to home for many.
Popular UK game show The Chase has been a brief subject of discussion in the online LEGO community this week for the 150th episode of the 17th series.

According to The Chase wiki, the team of contestants unfortunately didn't win the episode, but at least it's good for LEGO fans to know that we aren't alone in our love of big sets and following instructions.
