The Chase star Anne Hegerty has revealed she's had to step down from appearing in the forthcoming series of Beat The Chasers, after catching coronavirus.
The 63-year-old - who's known as The Governess on the ITV quiz show - explained she was ruled out of filming its spin-off in a tweet which read, "Unfortunately I’ve contracted Covid-19 so won’t be filming this series of #BeatTheChasers."
Anne, who worked as a journalist in Newport during the early '80s, told fans she was being replaced on the shoots by the bowtie-wearing Issa Schultz, one of the stars of the Australian version of The Chase and seven-time winner of the Australian Quizzing Championships.
