Battle of the BRAINS

Chasers Shaun Wallace, Anne Hegerty and Mark Labbett take on some of the world’s smartest minds

- HANNAH DAVIES, STEVEN PERKINS,

On home turf they’re almost unbeatable, but The Chase stars Shaun Wallace, Anne Hegerty and Mark Labbett face a different kind of challenge this week when they embark on a three-part road trip.

The series, filmed before the pandemic, sees the trio going up against some of the sharpest brains in the UK, the US and Japan – and not all of them are human.

‘In the series, we look at various aspects of intelligence, ranging from child intellect to intelligence within animals and the latest AI and robot technology,’ says Wallace, 60.
