Anne Hegerty ‘p***ed off’ at idea she'll be replaced by new 'Love Island'-style Chaser
 “They have tried out a few 20-year-olds for The Chase as quizzers.“I would be more than p***ed off if I was replaced, as she would not be as good as me.“Nobody is about to replace me.”In his Oxford Union address, Mark said the producers were looking for someone who can “play like Anne or Jenny (Ryan) and looks like she can be on Love Island”.The popular ITV quiz show is in the middle of its 15th season, and all the current Chasers have tons of experience to show for themselves. In an exclusive interview with Express.co.uk from earlier this month, Anne further expressed how unhappy she would be about the decision to introduce new blood.The star previously revealed that the more Chasers there are, the less money they all get paid. She explained: “If they introduce one, I mean, we won’t get told.“It will kind of be sprung on us. I guess we’ll just have to put up with it.”Based on the pattern of recruitment over the last few years, it seems unlikely there will be another Chaser for some time. After the first series of The Chase, Anne joined Mark Labbett and Shaun Wallace in 2010.Paul Sinha was added the following year, after which changes to the panel occurred much more slowly.In 2015, Jenny Ryan became the fifth Chaser on the panel, while the most recent addition, Darragh Ennis, was introduced in 2020.This comes as Anne has a new sitcom in the works called Gammon, and is likely to branch her career away slightly from ITV.“The sitcom hasn’t actually been greenlit yet,” she told Express.co.uk.“We are hoping for someone to pick it up.
