ITV The Chase halted as Bradley Walsh has tense ‘badger’ exchange with co-star

Bradley Walsh erupted into fits of laughter after making a rather awkward comment likening one of the Chasers to a “badger”.

Walsh, 63, returned to our screens on Thursday (December 14) as he once again took on the presenting role of hit ITV gameshow The Chase. Bradley was joined by another team of four hoping to answer as many questions correctly as possible to take home some serious cash.

First up in the team was David, a human resources worker from Glasgow. After taking on his cash-builder round, the plucky Scotsman was able to bring £4,000 to the table, but no one knew who the team would be taking on in today’s show.

Bradley then started to list off the potential Chasers the group could be facing. In typical fashion, Bradley was able to take a few jibes about the Chasers before moving on to the next one.

Starting off with Darragh ‘The Menace’ Ennis, Bradley made his way around the room of potential Chasers. He went on to describe the other Chasers in a teasing way, saying that the ‘Dark Destroyer’ Shaun Wallace would come second in a lookalike contest for himself, losing out to a bowling ball.

After taking the brutal swipe, Bradley began to waver as he realised his awkward comments. As he continued to introduce the potential Chasers, he started to lose his composure, having a particular stumble after introducing Jenny ‘The Vixen’ Ryan.

Giving her an introduction, Bradley quipped: “The most glamorous Chaser, which is a bit like being the most intelligent chicken.” After reading the script, Bradley was left looking bemused at what he had just read, muttering: “What?”

Things did not reach their peak, however, before Bradley finished with Anne Hegerty, the longest-serving female Chaser. As the last person to be introduced, Bradley broke down in fits of laughter as he spared no mercy for The Governess as he quipped: “Not so much Megan Fox, more angry badger.”

Walsh then erupted into hysterics as he slumped behind the table, trying to hide his accidental faux pas. Contestant David was left bemused as he patiently waited for Bradley to regain his composure and reveal who the team would be taking on in the quiz.

In the end, Shaun Wallace was revealed to be taking on the team in Thursday’s episode. He was able to knock out just one contestant, leaving the remaining three with the chance to win £5,000 each.

The Chase airs every weekday at 5pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
