Beat the Chasers aired on ITV as comedian Chris McCausland and three other celebrities went up against the six Chasers to win money for charity.
Chris McCausland says he 'wiped the floor' with Anne Hegerty
Beat the Chasers returned to ITV on Tuesday (June 4) as four celebrities attempted to win some money for charity.
Bradley Walsh was joined by the stars of The Chase; Darragh Ennis, Anne Hegerty, Paul Sinha, Jenny Ryan, Mark Labbett and Shaun Wallace.
Chris McCausland was the third famous face to go head-to-head with the Chasers, putting on an impressive performance in the first round.
As the Chasers were handing out their offers, the spotlight landed on Anne. The Governess quipped: "Hello Chris. You've been on The Chase, haven't you?"
The 46-year-old recalled going up against Anne when he previously appeared on the ITV quiz show. Anne confessed: "And you beat me, didn't you?" Not holding back, the comedian exclaimed: "I wiped the floor with you, Anne!"

The 65-year-old was hoping history wouldn't repeat itself as she hit back: "Well you did really well on The Chase which suggests that you're clever. And you're back here, which suggests that you're stupid."
Chris made a bold move as he chose the chasers' biggest offer, opting for five of them, with a hefty sum of £50,000.
Explaining his tactic, the actor told Bradley: "Every single one of them is far cleverer than I am, but I've seen Jenny on this a lot and she doesn't seem to have any difficult areas of quizzing, so I think the more they can slow her down, the better."
Turning to his co-star, Darragh quipped: "That's a bold strategy!" Unfortunately for Chris, he ran out of time before the chasers, who had 22 seconds left on their clock.

Chris didn't walk away empty-handed, however, as the show gave him £1,000 for The Whitechapel Centre - the leading homeless and housing charity for the Liverpool region.
Following Chris's appearance, viewers flocked to social media as they said the same thing. One wrote: "I love Chris McCausland so much. Lovely guy and so funny." Another declared: "Chris McCausland a brilliant human being!"
A third agreed: "Chris McCausland seems like a great guy." Like Chris, England footballer Mary Earps and Pointless presenter Alexander Armstrong failed to beat the professional quizzers.
However, comic and actor Nish Kumar walked away with an impressive £25,000.
