Anne Hegerty's Game Show Struggles
The Chase quiz master, Anne Hegerty, has admitted that she had two unsuccessful appearances on a rival game show in the past. Despite her reputation for strong general knowledge on The Chase, fans may be surprised to learn about her previous struggles on another popular quiz show.
The Mastermind Debacle
In a recent interview, Anne opened up about her less-than-stellar performances on the BBC quiz show, Mastermind. Back in 1987, while working as a journalist, she made her first appearance on the show. Her expert topic was "The Life and Works of Lorenz Hart," the renowned lyricist. However, Anne confessed, "I wasn't that good." She went on to reveal that she participated in Mastermind twice and lost both times.
Throwback Photos and Transformation
Throwback photos of Anne's Mastermind appearances have been shared on social media, surprising fans with her distinctive transformation. In the unearthed pictures, Anne is seen sporting a frizzy curly bob haircut, oversized vintage glasses, and an oversized fitted rainbow colored dress. The images depict a very different look from her current appearance on The Chase.
A screenshot of Anne sitting on the iconic Mastermind chair was posted on a fan account on Twitter, with Anne herself replying to the tweet. She mentioned that the recording took place late in 1987, coinciding with the tragic King's Cross fire.
Fans React to the Unearthed Images
The unexpected images of Anne sparked a flurry of reactions from fans. Many couldn't believe the transformation and commented on her different appearance. One fan wrote, "I can't believe that is you!" Another exclaimed, "OMG you look so funny!" A third fan remarked, "You look so different, wow!" In a lighthearted response, Anne jokingly said, "I look pretty funny now!"
Despite her unsuccessful stints on Mastermind, Anne Hegerty has become a beloved figure on The Chase, captivating audiences with her impressive knowledge and quick wit.
