The Chase star Anne Hegerty stuns in sheer dress at the Film Awards

So different to The Governess!

The Chase’s Anne Hegerty has debuted a stunning new look at the Film Awards.

Anne’s dress included a nude top layered loosely over a dress of matching tones, with both featuring glittery, swirling patterns of silver.

Completing the transformation was a black clutch bag, silver shoes and a touch of colour with red lipstick and fiery orange eye shadow.

It not the first time she’s stepped back from her hard-faced persona on The Chase and given fans a glimpse of her other side.

During her stint on the last series of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here, Anne revealed she has Asperger’s and initially struggled with life in the camp.

But viewers quickly warmed to her and were stunned by the transformation she went through during her time on the hit celeb reality show.

Anne has been a fan favourite on The Chase since joining the show in 2010.

But earlier this year, it emerged that she might be leaving as she hinted at retirement plans in a conversation with the Daily Star: “My schedule has gone bonkers and I find it overwhelming most of the time.

“Not a day goes by that I don’t think it would be cool to retire.”

Anne later clarified that she has no immediate plans to step down.

She told Metro: “I love doing The Chase, I’m absolutely loyal to it and it will always be my top priority. I don’t intend ever to leave!

“But ever since coming out of the jungle it’s been an absolute whirlwind, and you can’t blame someone for idly fantasising about what it would be like not to have to do so much!”

Earlier this week, The Chase viewers were left gobsmacked after one question revealed that the green gummy bear in the Haribo sweet mix is strawberry and not apple flavoured, as most people assumed from its colour.

Mark ‘The Beast’ Labbett, who was The Chaser during that game, was confident he would have known the answer in his “pre-diabetic days”.

He told the contestant: “I’d have nailed that in a heartbeat. I’m not allowed them any more.”
