Election 2024: Keir Starmer jeered as he talks about dad's toolmaker job The Chase star Mark Labbett was left unimpressed during the General Election leaders debate as Sky News presenter Beth Rigby grilled both Sir Keir Starmer and Rishi Sunak in tonight's TV showdown. The quizmaster, otherwise known as The Beast, said he was not happy with the host's style of questioning as he claimed she was "constantly interrupting" both politicians. Taking to X, the 58 year old tweeted: "Wish Beth Rigby would stop interrupting every five seconds #battlefornumberten," before adding he is not a fan of her interview technique.

" Another penned: "I disagree, she’s doing a great job!" A fourth argued: "He just waffles on over the same points over and over again! He wont answer a question."
