Calendar Girls Question Trips Anne Hegerty as Team Wins £17,000 on The Chase

Hegerty later said tiny lapses decide outcomes following her pass on a Calendar Girls question.

Overview

  • Host Bradley Walsh asked who played Chris Harper in Calendar Girls with eight seconds left, prompting Hegerty to pass as the team supplied Helen Mirren.
  • The pass left Hegerty with four seconds to answer two questions, and she ran out of time with one still to go.
  • Simon, Nik and Suzanne set an 18-step target and shared £17,000, taking home £5,666 each.
  • Cash-builder scores were £6,000 for Genevieve, £5,000 for Simon, and £6,000 each for Nik and Suzanne, creating the £17,000 pot.
  • Earlier in the episode Hegerty told Walsh she was irritated after two errors and missing the chance to catch Simon.
