Anne Hegerty - a star of ITV's quiz show The Chase - has made her on-screen acting debut in a short film shot in Letchworth.

Exorcising Barry is a 17-minute short film that had its first screening last week at the Genesis Theatre in London.

Filmed in Letchworth in May and June this year, the film follows two friends who stage an exorcism, with professional quizzer Anne playing nosey neighbour Barb.

Anne, who is known as 'The Governess' on The Chase, told BBC Three Counties Radio that she enjoyed the acting experience.

She said: "I'd love to be in the next James Bond film, I'd love to be in the MCU [Marvel Cinematic Universe], anything like that," adding that "The Chase always comes first".
