Issa Schultz heads to UK Beat the Chasers

"The Supernerd" to replace Anne Hegerty on Beat the Chasers after she contracted COVID-19.

Aussie Chase expert Issa “The Supernerd” Schultz is headed to the UK to appear in Beat the Chasers to replace Anne Hegerty, aka The Governess.

Hegerty told her Twitter followers, “Unfortunately I’ve contracted Covid-19 so won’t be filming this series of #BeatTheChasers. The fantastic @Issa25 (Issa Schultz) will be stepping in for me and I’m looking forward to watching the series when it’s on air later this year. I feel fine, but I’m still positive! (in all respects).”

Beat the Chasers screened in Australia in 2020 but is yet to be renewed by Seven.

  1. I think Issa will be received very well in the UK as I believe that is where his roots are and also he is such a likeable person and easy going and the Brits like that type of person.

  2. It will be interesting to see how he’s received in the UK. I think Beat The Chasers was going to come back but Sydney’s extended lockdown last year may have stopped it.
