The Chase star shares what makes Bradley Walsh 'mad' in behind the scenes insight

The Chase star Darragh Ennis has revealed one way to instantly make show host Bradley Walsh "mad". Darragh, 44, joined the ITV show as a Chaser five years ago after triumphing over Paul Sinha in 2017.

Appearing as a contestant at the time, Darragh managed to pocket £9,000 in the cash builder, defeating the Sinnerman to make it through to the Final Chase. His teammates however took the lower offers, leaving just £6,300 to split between them. It sparked a GoFundMe appeal from outraged fans who wanted to help pay for a new door on Darragh's home - although he insisted the money should go to charity.

The Dublin-born quizzer found roles reversed three years later when he joined Paul, along with Mark Labbett, Anne Hegerty, Jenny Ryan, and Shaun Wallace as a Chaser. It saw him starring on the show alongside host Bradley Walsh.

Speaking on the Dempsey's Dozen podcast, Darragh revealed a surefire way to annoy Bradley, 65, is by starting a discussion about a particular food product. He said: "If you ever want to drive Bradley Walsh mad, talk about the different pasta types."

Mimicking an annoyed Bradley, Darragh added: "'It's all pasta, there's no difference'."

Darragh recently revealed that Bradley, who starred in Coronation Street before joining The Chase, is a "lot better than people think". Speaking at the National Television Awards, Darragh said Bradley "comes up with stuff on the cusp".

He added: "A lot of people think that he's just a clown and he's like, he likes to clown around, but he's a very professional clown."

The University of Oxford scientist says Bradley makes reading the questions at speed look "very, very easy". He admits it isn't a task he would enjoy, instead preferring to stick to answering them.

On Dempsey's Dozen, Darragh also addressed his relationship with his fellow Chasers. He said: "I tend to get on with Paul and Jenny best. Jenny's closest to me in age, I think we're about the same age.

"I get along with Jenny, I get along with Paul. We all get along to be honest. But Anne is an autistic lady in her sixties, so we don't hang out very much, but when we do, we all get along."

Darragh will be returning to screens on Beat The Chasers from 8pm on ITV One tonight. The spin-off show sees contestants answering questions worth £1,000.

A round ends once they miss a question or correctly get all five right. They must then pick how many Chasers to face-off against, the more opponents, the higher the cash prize.

Should they then defeat the experts in the timed head-to-head round, they walk away with the cash.
