It’s one of our favourite shows on tv and now there’s an extra reason to love The Chase, as the brand new chaser is Irish.

Darragh Ennis is set to become the six chaser, joining Mark Labbett, Shaun Wallace, Anne Hegerty, Paul Sinha and Jenny Ryan as they compete against the contests in a bid to stop them taking home the cash prize.

No stranger to the show, Darragh previously appeared as a contestant himself, but can’t wait to join the other side now.

“I’ve been working hard on this for a while now and can’t wait for my episodes to air. Well the ones I win anyway,” he laughed.

Darragh’s new colleagues took to social media to share their delight, and welcome him to the team.

Mark said, “Welcome to the pros kid. If you thought you were working hard before, you ain’t seen nothing yet. To be a winner, train like the Sinha.”

Meanwhile Paul Sinha added, “The night before they producers told us, Anne and Mark and I sat at dinner and pondered ‘Could it be a former contestant?’

“I said, ‘If it is, the best player I faced was an Irish guy who looked a bit like Micky Flanagan.’ Welcome to the club mate.”

We can’t wait to see him in action.
