Behind-the-scenes secrets from The Chase have been revealed by a former contestant, who spilled the beans on what you don’t see on the TV.

Rachel Warwick appeared in an episode of the ITV game show on October 5, but admitted during a TikTok Q&A that she actually filmed it almost two years ago.

Sharing a video to the social media site, Rachel looked to answer some frequently asked questions as well as sharing what Chaser Paul Sinha said to her which was cut from the final edit.

Speaking about all aspects of the show, Rachel praised host Bradley Walsh for being really nice to her and that the show’s wardrobe department decides what the contestants are going to wear.

Rachel revealed: “Bradley is lovely, you don’t get to talk to him that much before and after filming but when I did get to speak to him he is so nice and just as nice as on TV.”

Speaking about when she found out which Chaser she would be up against, Rachel said: “You don’t find out who your chaser is until the moment they come out and all the reactions are genuine.

“Even Bradley doesn’t know who your chaser will be so that’s quite exciting.”

She added: “In terms of hair and make-up, you show up to the studio with your hair and make-up done and then the make-up team touch it up later in the day.

“And you bring five outfits with you that you’re happy to wear and then the costume department pick the best one and make sure nobody is clashing. They decide what you wear.”

Rachel revealed how long the process took from applying to be on the show until her appearance and then the airing of the episode.

She told her followers: “I applied in September 2018, had the audition in October, filmed the episode in December and it only just aired in October 2020.

“A lot of people have asked about the studio audience but there is no audience in the studio.

“I don’t know if many people know this; it’s the four contestants, Bradley, the chaser, and all the camera crew and producers and stuff but yeah there’s no audience…”

One fan asked Rachel: “When Bradley says ‘after the break’ did you just continue straight away?”

She replied: “Yes – everything pauses for about 10 seconds and then we kept filming.”

Rachel was caught by her Chaser, Paul Sinha, but she said that what he said to her afterwards were cut from the show when it aired last month.

She said: “Unfortunately so, but even Paul said my questions were really hard!!!!

“They edited that out of the episode though.”
