Anne Hegerty, 64, who is best known by her Chaser name The Governess, defended Jenny Ryan, 40, after she tweeted to her 109,400 followers, asking for them to help her decipher what a disgruntled Twitter user was referring to in a nasty tweet.The tweet from Jenny read: “Can anyone enlighten me as to what this person is referring to?”After an unnamed user, which Jenny purposefully left out of the cropped image, had written to her: “I thought you were disgusting in Beat the Chasers with your attitude towards your fellow chasers.“It was embarrassing on The Chase watching you blow your own trumpet, but seeing the episode with Margot and Ria again demonstrated what an appalling person you are.!With her characteristic wit, Anne was one of the first to reply to Jenny’s plea for help concerning the less than complimentary tweet.She joked: “I believe they are trying to say, 'Nurse!

I'm out of bed again!'”Gaining 350 likes for her remark, which was even more likes than Jenny’s original tweet, others commented with numerous laughing emoji’s.One of those who liked Anne’s reply was former Countdown star Carol Vorderman, who has her own wicked sense of humour.In line with Anne’s reply, others defended Jenny, whose Chaser nickname is The Vixen.One user under the name Hazel commented: “I don't know what they're on about.“I've never met you, but you were the chaser when my Mam was on and she said you were fab.” (sic)And another added: “Jenny don’t listen to them I don’t care what anyone else says but u are an amazing person who is so nice and respectful.U are the vixen.
