The Chase star Anne Hegerty thinks Ibrox means 'dung heap' in Scottish football question

During last night's The Chase, a Scottish football question was put to the contestants, about which stadium's name means 'dung heap'.

Hoping to take home some cash, Craig from Manchester, Iona from Cardiff, Penny from Sunderland and Cathy from Devon took to the table.

It was Chaser Anne Hegerty, also known as The Governess, who was ready to take on the four contestants.

And when it was Cathy's turn to try put some money in the pot, a Scottish football question came up. The question was: "What Scottish football team plays at a stadium with a name meaning 'dung heap'?"

The options for answers were Aberdeen, Dundee United and Rangers. 'Pittodrie', Aberdeen's home ground actually translates from Gaelic to 'Hill of Dung' - meaning that was the correct answer,

However, Cathy opted for Dundee United whilst The Governess opted for Rangers.

When host Bradley Walsh looked at Anne to explain her answer, she said: "I had no idea, but I realised that I don't know what Ibrox means, so who knows?"

And the clip has since being doing the rounds on social media as one Twitter user shared the video and wrote: "Anne Hegarty in The Chase goes for Ibrox means Dungheap!"

The tweet has been viewed by thousands and in the replies, many Twitter users poke fun at the Glasgow side.

One wrote: "She know does Anne and she did it with a straight face."

Another added: "Correct answer tho?"

While one penned: "Can't believe they didn't say she was correct."

Another commented: "She didn’t know what Ibrox meant. It was just a guess."

While one quipped: "She's actually spot on!"

Finally, one added: "Shouted Rangers at tele before answers came up then nearly p*** when she picked it."

The Chase airs weekdays at 5pm on ITV.
