Anne Hegerty's Costume Secret Revealed!

The Chase star Anne Hegerty has shared a surprising detail about her on-screen persona, clarifying that she does not own the 'Governess' costume. This revelation comes as she and fellow Chaser Shaun Wallace spoke about their experiences filming the new international spin-off, 'The Chase Around The World.' The series takes the popular quiz show to various European locations, starting in Rome, where teams of two battle for a £100,000 prize. Competitors navigate the cities by solving puzzles and answering quiz questions, with the last-place team facing a head-to-head challenge against two Chasers. Wallace recounted fans recognizing them during filming, emphasizing the importance of stopping for photographs as a way of thanking the public. Hegerty also shared an anecdote about being recognized in the Alps, noting that their costumes indicated they were working. Host Bradley Walsh described the new format as "The Chase... but around the world," highlighting the shift from the studio to incredible real-life locations. He also detailed an emotional moment where a devastated couple, upon realizing they were still in the competition after beating the Chasers, transformed despair into joy. 'The Chase Around The World' began airing on Thursday, July 16, 2026, at 9pm on ITV1, ITVX, STV, and STV Player, with subsequent episodes broadcast weekly.
