The Chase has been criticised for airing an "insensitive" question about The Prodigy on the same day as the death of Keith Flint.

 

The frontman was found dead in his home yesterday (March 4) aged 49, with his fellow bandmates and many others paying tribute.

 

However, on last night's edition of the ITV quiz show, host Bradley Walsh asked the question: "Which of these chart acts has the fewest members?", one of the options being The Prodigy.

 

Viewers immediately hit out at the show for the question, one writing: "Very poor timing on the prodigy question !"

I suspect The Chase was recorded before Keith Flint’s death became public. I doubt he’d mind. The poor man took his life, and by all accounts he was a very decent and kind hearted bloke. RIP Keith.

Everything I hear about Flint was that he was decent, kind, generous, funny, quite charming, and very, very well liked by those around him, and alot of the music community. Though I was, and still am a huge fan of electronica, I appreciated their music, but was not a big fan. But, I can acknowledge the talent, and he was quite a performer.
