The Chase's Anne Hegerty left panicking she missed her turn after awkward ITV blunder

The Chase star Anne Hegerty left herself in confusion after an on air blunder caused her to question her move.

The ITV show’s host Bradley Walsh welcomed four new hopefuls onto the show and the second contestant was a DJ named Ray.

Ray admitted that he would love to use the prize money to take his kids to Jamaica to visit a record shop and Walsh promptly got the competition underway.

Chaser Anne Hegerty took her position at the top of the podium and Ray denied her high offer of £24,000 as it “wasn’t high enough”.

However, as she went to answer the first of Walsh’s questions, Anne let out a sudden sneeze which left the studio in shock.

Anne was worried that the sneeze had caused her to miss her turn

Bradley “blessed” Anne as the contestants giggled and Hegerty chuckled to herself.

She then responded: “I think I pressed the button!”

After she had composed herself, Bradley went on to confirm that both the contestant and the Chaser had chosen the right answer and the quiz continued.

Bradley then asked them to answer which game uses the most tiles between dominoes, mahjong and Scrabble.

Ray apprehensively selected mahjong but then admitted he was “beginning to regret” his choice after he realised that Scrabble has more than one tile for each letter.

Bradley was caught off guard by the ordeal

However, he got the question right along with Anne and the competition moved on to the next question as Bradley praised him for “playing well”.

Walsh was then taken aback after a question containing the answer “the marrow song” left Ray stumped.

Bradley told him that it was a “very famous old song indeed,” to which Ray’s response left him speechless.

Ray replied: “Never heard of either of them, I know they’re big. Marrows are big!”

Despite his off-the-cuff response, Ray managed to secure the correct answer, much to the host’s astonishment as he continued to say the he “can’t believe Ray had never heard” of the tune.

The DJ went on to storm through the round using sound logic with most of his choices, which clearly impressed Walsh and viewers on Twitter.

Some fans gushed over his “well played” performance while others called it a “good start”.
