THE CHASE TO AIR ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL THIS SEPTEMBER ON ITV

ITV are to air a celebratory episode of The Chase this September to mark the daytime quiz's 15th anniversary.



A BAFTA award-winning format that isn’t just a quiz, it’s a race, where the players must ensure they stay one step ahead of the chaser, one of the finest quiz brains in the country.



Hosted by Bradley Walsh, contestants must answer general knowledge questions and play their tactics right in order to get themselves into the Final Chase, where they could win a cash pot worth thousands.


The six chasers are Mark Labbett, Shaun Wallace, Anne Hegerty, Paul Sinha, Jenny Ryan, and Darragh Ennis. Labbett and Wallace have both been chasers since series 1, while Hegerty joined in series 2, Sinha in series 4, Ryan in series 9 and Ennis in series 13.



Katie Rawcliffe, Head of Entertainment Commissioning at ITV, commented (Via RadioTimes): "The Chase is still the most watched programme in daytime reaching over 9.2 million viewers every week and having been streamed more than 23 million times in Q1 of this year alone. So, we're very excited and proud to be celebrating 15 impressive years of the show later this year on ITV1 and ITVX."


Michael Kelpie, Managing Director, Potato TV added: "15 years on air is an incredible achievement and one we’re so proud of. With The Chase still winning accolades and expanding around the world, the show continues to go from strength-to-strength entertaining global audiences."



The Chase Anniversary Special airs Monday 2nd September at 5pm on ITV1. Stream previous episodes on ITVX.
