The Chase star Jenny Ryan has shared some behind the scenes details from the filming of the hit ITV hit show.
Nicknamed ‘The Vixen’, the quizzer, 41, revealed viewers actually miss out on a lot of the drama as a number of scenes are cut from the show’s final edit.
Speaking in an interview with The Mirror, Jenny spilled all about the what really happens on the show, as she confessed host Bradley Walsh gets himself into heaps of trouble with producers.
Revealing what viewers don’t see, she admitted: ‘There’s all sorts of stuff. There is so much stuff that Bradley says or he does, sometimes breaking the set accidentally or falling off the steps. That all gets cut out, it doesn’t even make it into the bloopers.
‘I’m hoping that one day we are gonna have a mega bloopers, and it’s just gonna be Brad falling down or saying something very silly.’

Jenny also explained that usually the programme takes almost double the time to film compared to what fans eventually see.
She added: ‘It will take on a really good day one hour and 40 minutes, two hours maximum… which is around how long it takes to get my hair and makeup done!’
While Jenny revealed Bradley can be a bit of a liability on set, last month fellow chaser Mark Labbett revealed that his biggest concern is making sure host Bradley Walsh stays ‘fit enough’ to continue presenting.
The Chase star, 58, also known as The Beast, admitted that he and his fellow professional chasers keep an eye on the TV presenter so he doesn’t overdo too much in work.
Mark claimed he has to make sure Bradley, 63, is fit because they have to film between 150-200 episodes a year – as well as the actor’s other commitments.
Speaking to The Mirror, Mark said: ‘Our biggest worry is Bradley being 63 now. Every month, we’re going, “You okay, Brad? How’s the health?” Wrap him in bubble wrap!
‘He’s so damn popular you’re more worried about what he signed up for now.’
Last year, as well as hosting The Chase, Bradley hosted The Royal Variety Performance and is set to present the return of Gladiators alongside his son Barney next week.

While Bradley has decades of experience hosting high-profile television programmes, Barney has yet to anchor one.
Since 2019, Barney has appeared next to his father on their ITV series Bradley Walsh & Son: Breaking Dad, in which the pair take on challenges while travelling the world.
Last month Joe Sugg nearly made history as he banked £201,000 on The Chase Celebrity Special on Saturday, leaving host Bradley speechless.
The former Strictly Come Dancing star, 32, who reached the final in 2018, joined Myles Stephenson, David James and Lucrezia Millarini in a hope to raise money for charity.
Joe managed to get £8,000 in his cash builder round before he went head-to-head with Paul Sinha, also known as the Sinnerman.
After a positive round, Joe was then offered to take either a low offer of £1,000 or a high offer of £201,000.

Joe teased: ‘If I go for the [the high offer] it could make a viral moment, which is a good thing. It’d be an incredible amount for charity as well.’
After picking the higher offer, Joe managed to get multiple questions correct in his round.
Bradley said: ‘I wish you luck. You’re gonna make history here, mate. If you go though you’re making history.
He added: ‘We’re gonna go viral. I better stand next to you if you’re gonna go through! Come on, good luck.’
Joe bumped the prize fund up to £213,000 for the final group round alongside Myles and David – after Lucrezia was eliminated.
