THE Chase fans were left outraged on Tuesday evening after Bradley Walsh insulted Anne Hegerty while on air.

Tuesday evening's episode of the ITV quiz show saw Jas, Owen, Gita and Alex join forces to take on one of the country's finest brains - but it was Bradley that soon stole the show.

Alex, an English teacher from Watford, was first up to face The Governess and had a decent cash builder, gaining a potential £6,000.

After taking the middle offer, he made it back to the table with the money he had earned.

One question he answered correctly related to the works of Shakespeare.

Alex and Anne were both asked which play the following quote is from: "There's a divinity that shapes our ends, Rough-hew them how we will".

After the round had finished, Bradley asked Anne what the quote means - and things soon got awkward.

"It means you can do quite a lot towards figuring out how your life is going to go, rather like roughly hacking out a piece of furniture," revealed Anne.

"But God is gonna kind of refine it and you won't have a choice about that."

Bradley then shouted: "Boring," leaving Anne red-faced as she responded: "Well, don't ask next time."

Their interaction soon left fans divided, with many ridiculing the host for being "unnecessarily rude" to Anne.

Taking to Twitter, one person fumed: "Was there really any need for Bradley to be rude to Anne like that?"

Echoing their comments, someone else said: "Come on, Brad. Don't ask a question if you don't want to know the answer to it. Unnecessarily rude!"

While a third quipped: "Boring? Bradley, you cheeky, cheeky thing."

The Chase airs weekdays at 5pm on ITV.
