DARRAGH ‘THE MENACE’ Ennis spoke to The Journal this week about his time on The Chase, social media trolls and his quiz tour which he is bringing to Ireland this September.

But for those who can’t wait until September for their ‘Menace’ quiz fix, they can catch him on Virgin Media, where a spin-off of The Chase is airing on Thursday nights.

The debut episode of ‘The Chase Around the World’ aired last Thursday and future episodes will air at 9pm on Thursdays.

The new programme sees contestants travel to secret international locations to track down all the chasers, solving clues and puzzles in a bid to win a £100,000 (€118,000) cash prize.

In the spirit of his new television series, Ennis put together a geography quiz for The Journal readers to test themselves with:
