The British population are still in shock after singer/presenter Stacey Solomon yesterday won £60,000 for her team on the ITV's The Chase.


The former X Factor star took on one of the show's top chasers, Anne Hegerty (AKA 'The Governess').

The 27-year-old was joined on the celebrity special by TV presenter Matt Allwright, news reader Louise Minchin and actor Keith Allen.

"I don't know how this is happening," she said after answering a series of questions correctly. You and me both.

Midway through Solomon's round, the chaser started feeling the heat.

And then came the deciding question, which was worth £60,000 for the team.

"The song lyric 'I'm gonna be your number one' appeared in what Blondie number one hit?"

Solomon's answer 'The Tide Is High' was met with a roaring cheer from the audience.

Despite all odds, she returned to her place as a winner.

Reacting in utter disbelief, host Bradley Walsh then exclaimed: "Stacey Solomon just beat Anne Hegerty, the UK's number two female quizzer."

The team went on to win £71,346, which was split equally between their individual chosen charities.

Turns out the 'ip, dip, do' theory does work after all.
