Beat The Chasers star Mark Labbett has stepped in to defend his co-host after she was slammed over a comment she made on the show. The Beast is back on screens every night this week with The Chase's prime time spin-off alongside Jenny Ryan, Paul Sinha, Shaun Wallace, and Darragh 'The Menace' Ennis.
They're also joined by Australian chaser Issa Schultz, aka The Supernerd for the string of ITV shows as he steps in for Anne Hegerty, known as The Governess, after she contracted Covid before filming started.
But it hasn't taken long before the new series to stir up some controversy and Chaser Mark was quick to defend his co-star, Jenny, after she came under fire for a comment she made on the show.
