The Chase host Bradley Walsh's most annoying habit shared by Anne Hegerty

The Chase star Anne Hegerty has revealed host Bradley Walsh's most annoying habit on the hit ITV quiz show.

Anne appears on the series as her alter-ego The Governess, and though her character might be fictional, she uses her real life genius to try and beat out the competition from contestants.

"And we're sitting down at the bottom with The Chase's producer, who doubles as the show's editor, and he's like, 'For goodness sake, Brad! This is all coming out,' and makes snip gestures."

Perhaps this is the reason that Bradley's not a member of the Chasers' special group chat.

The topic was brought up while discussing whether there's any rivalry between the Chasers on the show.

Anne said: "There isn't really, nobody wants to be the worst Chaser but if someone is having a bad day the rest of us will circle the wagons, because no one likes having a bad day."

Although the Chasers all get on, Jenny explained: "There's a little bit of rivalry, there's a lot of different stats and I think we are all top on one of the stats.

"We have the Chasers group chat, which no, Bradley isn't in. We'd drive him up the wall and he'd drive us up the wall."

She continued: "Sometimes Brad does act a little bit dim to wind us up and he pretends he doesn't know a thing.

"When actually [he's] incredibly one of the most switched-on humans there is, he's just doing it for a joke.

"Also, when he drinks too much coffee in the morning he talks a bit too fast too."

Earlier this year, it was revealed that The Governess was forced to step away from The Chase after contracting Covid.
