The Chasers and Bradley

I'm Mark Labbett, ' The Beast '.
I love a mighty feast.
I feed on fear
And then I cheer,
" With me, the show's complete! "

I'm  ' The Governess ' Anne Hegerty.
A.K.A. " Old Knickers a Frosty ".
I'll watch you wriggle and squirm
While you recall what you've learned...
Let's see who can escape from me!

I'm Jenny, ' The Vixen ' Ryan,
Don't like to send contestants cryin'.
I'm the Bolton lass
Who brings some class
To The Chase. And I'm not lyin'!

I'm Irish. I'm clever. I'm kind.
But beware, I can play with your mind.
My name's Darragh Ennis,
Pet name's  ' The Menace '
Never dreamt I'd be known UK wide.

I'm a doctor, comedian and smart.
I fulfill my roles like an art.
But  ' The Sinnerman's ' face
Is quiz genius on The Chase.
To pick my best moments, where to start?

Never underestimate a lawyer...
I'm also ' The Dark Destroyer '
I'll make your heads spin
With my glorious win
And this will really annoy ya! 

My dear contestants, you are strong.
Don't want to see you put a foot wrong!
If you're on your knees
I'll put you at ease...
I am with you -  " All day long "

You should send these to the TV company - absolutely hilarious. I love the show and the banter with Bradley and the way he dissolves into fits of laughter at some of the questions. Excellent fun poems Natasha:-) hugs Jan xx

Lol.. thanks Jan so glad you enjoyed them. Xx Limerick is definitely the form to bring out our sense of humour and fun. I really enjoyed wring these and the fact that others enjoy them too is real privilege. Thank you for your encouragement ;)

I think it could be cooler... The chase is on during week nights here too. Love the banter between Bradley and the Chasers and how he puts the contestants at ease. It always make me laugh when he says, " all day long " so I had to get that in somehow! :)
