The Chase host Bradley Walsh has let slip that the ITV quiz show is about "100 shows behind schedule" due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Production of the popular daytime programme stopped in February and near resumed because of the ongoing Covid-19 crisis. Bradley, 59, admitted that the team was "lucky" it had filmed the special series Beat The Chasers before the UK went into lockdown otherwise there would be no new episodes to air.
The cheeky-chappy told TV Mag: "“We were so lucky because we filmed it back in January. "Obviously if it had been a couple of weeks later it wouldn’t have been made. "We stopped filming on The Chase in February, so I would say at the moment we’re about 100 shows behind schedule, which we’ll need to make up." Brad
