Mark Labbett's Height
6ft 6 ¼ (198.8 cm)
English TV personality known for his role as the 'Chaser' on the game show The Chase. On twitter "The Beast" has talked about his tall stature numerous times:
[I stand] somewhere between 6'6" and 6'7" dependent on the time of day.
Every woman deserves [the] right to wear heels, but at 6'6"+ I would say that :)

6'6" or 6'7" depending on the machine and about 25stone/350lbs
[I'm a] tad over six foot six but short neck and long body thanks to very wide shoulders
I'm 6ft 7 and in heels, I'd be the world's first seven feet drag queen.

Bradders is bent up with laughter to find out that Theodore Roosevelt’s second son was called KERMIT! 🐸
You can see that Mark is also amused but as he knew this fact already, he’s not openly in hysterics.
I had no idea myself, so I was laughing too! 😂👌🏼

Mark was joking about his huge height, saying that when he goes to a football match, NOBODY can see the game because he’s in the way. ⚽️😡🤬🥅
I don’t need to joke about my height. Enough people do it for me! 😖🖕

Mark said this morning, “….and I went to watch my little 6ft9 brother…..”
I didn’t catch what he was watching the stripling sibling do because I was gazing at him with my mouth wide open!

There was a question on the first of this evening’s Chases about the meaning of the word ‘obstreperous’. Two of the options were to make a lot of noise and the other that stayed in my memory was to bake a lot of cakes.
The answer was to make an excessive amount of noise. Brad asked Mark what someone who bakes a lot of cakes is called. His reply……? “My friends!”

This morning I saw a thoroughly impressive episode of The Chase, in which a young fellow called David won £44K for his team. Mark was smiling away when David knew that, of the Georgian Kings, it was King George III who had an attempt made to assassinate him, but what was even more amazing was that David was able to quote that the Georgian era started in 1714, with George I.
As his correct questions mounted up, Mark said that Bradley was even more excited than David, who happened to be a few inches taller than Bradders.
Along with the other two contestants, who were called Martin and Carina, the three beat Mark and walked away with £20,000 each. Mark was very good spirited about it!

I’m watching Mark on a Chase and can’t help but notice that he is slimmer in the face, so obviously everywhere else as well. He’s shed his weight sensibly, and is sporting a fulsome head of shiny dark brown hair, clearly acquired through a healthy eating regime. I don’t think Mark would like to be really lean, but this weight-loss is very becoming and attractive, improving his entire appearance.
Well done Mark! 👌🏼
The contestant he’s playing is called Angela and she won a fantastic £11,000 in the cash build-up, displaying an incredible general knowledge. She has got through to the final, which I’m watching now. Wow - the two quizzers have 28 right, and Angela has been great. Now let’s see if they win….
THEY HAVE! Each player - Angela and another capable contestant called Neil - are walking away with £8K each. BRAVO! 👏

In today's Chase on Challenge between 6 and 7 o'clock in the evening, all four team members made it through.
They are assembled in height order and their names are Dee, Zoe, Joe and Dave. They proved to be a winning combination, walking off with £17K to divide between them.
Mark was genuinely nice about his defeat and congratulated them. If he'd been standing next to Dave, who looked around 6ft1-2, the sight would have been even more pleasing!

He has short legs and a really large torso, which doesn’t make him seem taller, but seeing him with other people, he’s an extremely tall dude.

Both ranges are fine but definitely no less. Sometimes his proportions aren’t the best because it very unbalanced.

That was AMAZING! Mark got the Spanish word for cat wrong, in that he said the word 'gato' meant dog!
My class learnt that gato meant cat when, as 11-year-olds, we studied a book entitled 'The Tale of Two Horses' by Aime F. Tschiffely, which described a journey taken by the horses from Argentina to New York or Washington (I can't quite remember!) as seen rather charmingly from the horses' point of view. Their names were Mancha and Gato, which described the horses' appearances. Possibly even on the first page, I recall 'Gato, which is the Spanish word for cat...', and it stayed with me.
🍰❎
🐈☑️
I think Mancha was named to describe the horse's blotchy, stained colouring. Both the horses were boys. 🐴🐴
The teacher who chose the book for us was a descendant of the lover of Mary Queen of Scots, James Hepburn, the fourth Earl of Bothwell. Mary Queen of Scots had claim to the English throne and was feared by Elizabeth I, who didn't really want to have her executed but it happened anyway, taking around three blows of the axe, and well known for being one of the messiest executions on record.
Our teacher was called Mary Bothwell.

There was a question on The Chase just now as to how many Earth-like planets there are in our galaxy. The options were:
a) 10 Million
b) 10 Billion or
c) 10 Trillion.
The answer was 10 billion. I got it right, but purely by luck, as I didn't have the foggiest!
That's an awful lot of Earths and boundless chances for life out there. Isn't that FANTASTIC?

I think he's slimmed down considerably since I last saw him in person close to 10 years ago. He was absolutely massive back then, his 6'6'' to 6'7'' claim is genuine I can guarantee. Very broad shouldered not muscular like an athlete but extremely robust in his frame. I wouldn't call him fat by any means but probably did need to lose weight as I guess we all need to be a bit careful when getting older.

In one of yesterday's Chases on the Challenge Channel, there was a little Cockney lady who had moved to Brighton for the wellbeing of her young son.
"What a nice place to bring up a kid!"
I thought; "You're a thoughtful and sensible lady!"
She went on to declare that she had the hots for Mark! 💞😍😯
It was so funny when he strolled on and he fully admitted that he LOVED it, giving her a higher offer than he would normally have done! I must say in her favour that there is something very attractive about somebody you can learn from. 😄👍
Now this lady was simply tiny! She was about a head smaller than Bradley, so how much the height difference between her and Mark was, Heaven only knows! 🙄

Hooray! There was a contestant on just now who thought that Henry VII was the monarch out of Henrys the V, VI and VII who reigned for the least time adding that son Henry VIII MARRIED HIS WIDOW! No! Thank goodness Mark stepped in and corrected her. Henry VIII married the widow of his brother, Arthur, who was Catherine of Aragon.
The King who ruled for the least time was Henry V. She should read more Shakespeare! He was killed in battle, at the Battle of Agincourt, in 1415, to be precise.

I've just watched an advert with Mark and Bradley Walsh appealing for people's votes in the up-and-coming TV awards. Bradley offered every voter a biscuit but The Beast had eaten them all! You could see from the wrappers that they were the huge, old-style wagon wheel type, which contained 200 calories a pop!
Bradley didn't even come up to Mark's shoulders.

There's a fellow on 'The Chase' who at 50+ has taken up Shakespearean acting and is starring at the Globe theatre, of all places - very authentic! "I play Bottom!" he said, (Midsummer Night's Dream), but this guy, David, is no silly ass! He's answering questions that have foxed Mark himself, and has got himself through to the final.
David is noticeably taller than Brad, so still a large chunk shorter than Mark, but then, who isn't?
Mark gets 6ft6 and a quarter.

This week, Britain's had the pleasure of watching Mark beaten twice - either on ITV or on the Challenge channel, and he's been genuinely nice about it, congratulating the winners and meaning it from the heart. I've seen him lose and sweating with anger!
Doesn't this just go to prove that getting older suits many people? They say it's men, but I think it can apply to both sexes. So you may lose height with age, but there are bonuses to be had along life's journey as well.
Frequently, when Braddles introduces Mark as the team's Chaser, he mentions his height to be six foot six. I think that's how many people feel about fractions as small as a quarter of an inch. On a website devoted solely to height, little bits DO matter. Before I came here, I didn't realize just how noticeable half-an-inch looks on two unshoed people and even a quarter-inch is spottable. I've seen enough pictorial evidence.
One last thing: you silly Big Boy not knowing that it was David Bowie, NOT David Essex, who had a 70s hit album called 'Station to Station'! You're old enough to know that, surely, Mark? Pizz easy.....

That was rather brilliant! A young lad of 22 just won £50,000 in the cash build-up! Mark was the Chaser and he reckoned that the lad was way above the intelligence of your average 22 year old. He was above average in height too, making Bradley look tiny, but as for Big Mark, he will take some beating!
Mark gets 6ft6.25. He makes more jokes about his monster appetite than his monster height I've noticed!

A player on The Chase called Sharron just said to Mark, "I've taken down women bigger than you!"
She'd played basketball at one time. Mark pretended not to be very amused, and said to Sharron, "Just for that, you can have £400!"
Ooh, the sarcasm that's ensuing! 😂😂😂

Atually its hard to say whether he could be measure taller than he look at this bulky body. 6'4 stand alone and 6'6 with others but maybe gonna measure out a fraction over 6'6.

I have just seen an edge-of-your-seat morning Chase! All four contestants made it through to the final, winning a total of £19.200. I was particularly vying for a guy called Paul, who was needing the prize money for a new roof! I know the feeling - every time it pours down! ☔😆
There were a great many historical questions, which suited me down to the ground, and I even got a food question right, as did Mark, of course! 😋🍱 The team were strong, and it was great to see them hugging each other at that triumphant moment! 🏆🎖️🎖️🎖️🎖️
Big 'n' burly Mark looked huge as he walked on to take his seat, but then, when doesn't he? His height is often mentioned as 6ft6, probably because they can't be bothered with the quarter!

I actually caught the showing of 'Who Wants to be a Millionaire?' with Mark Labbett in the early hours of yesterday morning. Chris Tarrant kept referring to Mark's vast height and Mark mentioned that his brother was even taller, 6ft8 I think he said. He talked enthusiastically about his career as a teacher, made full use of his lifelines, and told Chris about the many size-based nicknames he goes by. Finally, he left with £32,000. Not a bad day's work, is it? 😋

There’s not a visible difference between 1/4” and 1/2” to most people. That’s unless you have others to compare him to and you are of similar height with him

Content he's 6' 6 1/2"
Spent an evening/worked with him April 2019
Instant observation is he's a big guy, head, shoulders, hands. height, all out of regular range; but he generally didn't stand-tall, always relaxed posture, not so much hunched, as slouched for others convenience. Additionally, even without TV lights and make up, he looked much fresher faced than his age implied, more early 40's than 50's, middle girth aside, very fit and healthy.
I'd had a nose on here prior to check out his details, and having seen 6' 6" plus as the consensus, was initially disappointed.
He seemed big, very big overall, but not hugely tall, the middle-aged spread keeps you back a little and his odd proportions - all on the top half, massive shoulders, not so much chest, Orangutan arms, face as very substantial - confuse it all a little; but I was quietly thinking more the 6' 5" ish range in shoes than above early on.
He was on his feet for a few hours before, and then after an hour on the stage, was tiring and switched to a chair, his natural posture modifications became more apparent, whilst his legs enable him to sit easy on a chair, the standard desk/table height don't work for him, and he had to crease him self down even more to use them.
For security we'd positioned some of our guys - who claim 6' 5" (but I've always thought were more 6'3 to 4') even when he was relaxed, and they were stretching every inch to max their height, they were 2 minimum inches shorter than him, with negligible apparent footwear differences.
Final marker was when the public did photos with him towards the end, aware they wanted snaps with the "Big Man" he finally stood tall, pushed himself upright, shoulders back and he seemed to find 2 inches from no where. With a big crowd all looking for a selfie with him, the photo session lasted close to an hour, and after the first half he was back to his natural more relaxed standing posture.
Checking through photos afterwards, we had 200 people grab a picture with him, he was 3+ inches taller than anyone else there, I did ask a few their heights, from their figures, and he'd have been way, way over 6' 7". Experience tells me (most) people habitually add 1 or 2 inches to the heights they quote for themselves, factor that in and he'd have been a more sensible 6' 6" to 7".
His job is all about being accurate, precise, correct, and I after a few hours off-on chatting, he was witty knowledgeable on a wide variety of topics (who'd have thought! :) ) and also very frank about his IQ compared to some of the Boffins he was with at University and those he works or competes with on the Quizzing circuit, was almost self deprecating about his abilities - memory was his skill/advantage rather than true brain power.
If anything you got the impression he's underplay his height than exaggerate it and face any risk of being caught out, giving anyone ammo against him.
Walking around day to day I can see why people could estimate a 6' 5 to 6' 6 with a shoe, when he made the effort - he suddenly seemed to be an easy 6' 7.
I'll go with his personally given figure of 6 6 1/2
Throwing out a theory / question...
Could it be that his above average torso and head, with pretty standard legs, meaning more of his height is linked to his spine than the typical.
Leg angles aside, "standing tall" - reaching your max, is about stretching your upper body back and up from your regular posture.
So much of his overall mass being above the waist, does this give him more scope to shrink/rise than the norm when he puts the effort in, and explain the telescope moment I felt I witnessed?

I agree with CSimpson. His legs are on the short side for a person 6’6 or over. I agree with Rob’s listing despite this and he would probably give off an even taller impression if he were more proportionately built

@Csimpson6ft The baggy pants due to his size that he wear also had something to do with how his proportion turn out looking like he got some 6'3 legs with 6'6 frame, to me he got regular legs when i see him walk but not that long maybe fit well for 6'5 guy but he is 6'6 a low unlike Richard Osman look to be 6'7 1/2 claim 6'7 and had some legs to fit for 6'8 guy.

Believe me I've seen this guy up close as have previously commentated and he is massive. I read somewhere that he planned to lose weight though so maybe lighter than when I saw him some years ago. As for his height he genuinely is in the 6'6'' to 6'7'' range. I'm pretty accurate at guessing heights and don't overestimate usually.

@Junior: I could buy up to 198.8 like Rob has but 198.5 is reasonable. Remember a guy his size with a long torso like he has will lose more height than the average 6’6” guy. He would be 6’7” out of bed with ease I bet

@Canson He didn't have short legs but not very long for a 6'6 guy just a normal leg proportion. Looking more on Labbett i feel Carmelo Anthony would be more like a guy pass for a fraction over 198cm than Labbett not denied he look more like a flat 6'6.

⭐️ I feel I was a trifle nasty about Mark's inability to recognise what 'Pater Noster' meant! The question was: "Which prayer does 'Pater Noster' mean?" The answer is literally 'Our Father', or 'The Lord's Prayer'.
Although he may be far more used to the pressure of quizzing than your average contestant, he is still under enormous pressure, even more so because he has his reputation to uphold. I just thought that he should have sussed out in a flash that 'pater' is related to the word 'paternity', (as in suit!) and 'paternal', as it 'grandmother' etc!
It can't be easy sitting in that seat, with the beady and judgemental eye of the Great British Public expecting you to excel each and every time. All the Chasers are smashing and do a wonderful job, day in, day out, week in, week out and have done so for years! ⭐️

I've seen him in person a few times, he used to work as a teacher in South Wales before his TV career took off. He is not obese as one poster suggests. The word I would uses to describe him is huge but in the sense of being physically imposing not fat. I would have guessed him as 6'6'' to 6'7'' which he gives as his height and he is very broad shouldered. If he carries a lot of weight believe me he has a big enough frame to get away with it with.

Great to see the big man added. This guy's height is beyond questioning, he genuinely is 6'6'' or thereabouts. Suppose his size helped him to stand out when he got the chance to appear on the Chase.
