The Chase's Shaun Wallace has addressed co-star Bradley Walsh's previous comments on retiring from the show in the future.
Bradley, 61, spoke earlier this year about his busy career and possible retirement plans in the next few years.
He said: "You know what, in a couple of years time I won’t have to do any of it, I’ll be retired and that’ll be it.

"It seems like I’m on your screen all the time only because I cram everything in a certain area of the year.
"We make 210 Chases, 16 Celebrity Chases, 16 Beat The Chasers. It’s only actually 86 days recording."
The surprise confession on the Sliding Doors podcast worried some fans, but The Dark Destroyer brushed off any rumours.
Speaking to the Express, Shaun said he hoped Bradley wouldn't be leaving anytime soon.
He said: "Let's hope not, I've not heard that, but if I've got anything to do with it, he'll be going until his last breath."
Previously, Anne Hegerty also put fans at ease following Bradley's admission.
She said on the My Time Capsule podcast: "I mean, I think this was Brad just talking off the cuff. I don’t think he has any plans to retire.
"I think he just meant, you know, obviously I can’t go on forever."
