Jenny Ryan was flooded with comments as she made an unrecognisable appearance on The Chase's Christmas special. The quizzer, known as 'The Vixen' to fans of the ITV quiz show, was back on the box for a celebrity edition of the hit programme on Boxing Day.

The latest episode saw Host Bradley Walsh back at the helm and he was joined by fourt famous contestants ready to take on the Chasers in a bid to win big money for charity.

Taking part in the celebrity festive edition this time was actress Vicki Michelle, TV presenter Radzi Chinyanganya, Paralympian Kadeena Cox and former Tour de France winner Bradley Wiggins.

In a twist to the usual game, the celebrity line-up were pitted against all five of the Chasers with Jenny Ryan appearing in the studio for the final round of the popular TV game show.

And The Vixen, who was also seen showing off her other talents on Britain Get Singing on Christmas Eve, looked stunning as she donned a Christmas-inspired look for her appearance at the top of the money board.

Jenny had ditched her iconic cat eye glasses, with her red tresses styled in a sleek updo which perfectly complimented her festive sparkly green gown. And even Bradley was stunned by the transformation as he asked: "And you are?" to which Jenny laughed and Bradley added: "You look so different without your glasses. You look great."

He had earlier gushed over Anne Hegertey's change in look as she fitched her usual 'The Governess' attire for a dazzling red frock. "You haven't got your governess' kit on you... look fantastic. Anne Hagerty the chaser look at you!" he said to which Anne replied: "Just call me the glamour puss."

And the compliments came in on social media for them both. @Hallowine6 said: "It's lovely to see the Chasers all dressed up and looking very smart, especially Anne who looks very glamorous tonight. It's a wonder their usual work uniforms aren't falling to bits by now," before adding: "Wow Jenny looks stunning #TheChase."
