Let’s talk about the real money. Chasers use their TV fame to bank lucrative side hustles. Mark Labbett hosts live pub quiz tours that can net him £10,000 per night.
Anne Hegerty has a thriving motivational speaking career. Shaun Wallace writes books and does after-dinner gigs. The show is the launchpad, not the final destination.
Cultural nod: Remember when Jenny Ryan (The Vixen) released a charity single? That’s brand expansion, baby. The Chasers are essentially small businesses with a TV credit.
The Tax Man Cometh
Don't weep for them just yet. Because Chasers are self-employed (like most TV talent), they pay their own taxes, agents, and PR costs. That £100k gross quickly becomes £60k net after deductions.
Also, they get no residuals. If an episode reruns in Australia ten times, they see exactly zero pence. It’s a one-and-done payment model.
One moment, please...
