Judge Jules opened up about his time on The Chase Celebrity special was slightly less stressful due to his familiarity with the studio. The esteemed DJ featured on the ITV special alongside other well-known personalities such as Lesley Joseph, Jenni Falconer and Patrick Kielty.
The team faced off against Shaun 'The Dark Destroyer' Wallace in nail-biting rounds, culminating in all four celebrities participating in the final chase. It was during this round that they managed to outsmart Wallace, securing a total of £200,000 to divide among their selected charities.
However, while some might buckle under the intense pressure of the ITV quiz show, 58 year old lawyer and DJ Judge Jules confessed he didn't l
"I'm not nervous in my normal activities, before I go on the decks or anything else related to the music business," he told the Mirror.
The London-born star continued: "It was a little bit nervy because it's such an unfamiliar environment. The strange thing was, it's filmed in Elstree Studios where EastEnders is filmed, or it was when I did it anyway. My dad (Shaun O'Riordan) worked there his entire working life, so I'd been to those studios multiple times - my dad was a TV director so I think maybe that eased off the pressure a little bit."
Jules, set to DJ across the UK and Balearics this summer, shared: "It's fast moving, you meet three others who you've never met before, all of you are there for a common purpose, it's quite comedial backstage but at the same time, it's more the alien environment".
He described the shift from his comfort zone: "When you're experienced in one area and suddenly you're thrust into this alien environment, it makes it more nervous. We earned a chunk of money for charity, which was great. It was £200,00, so it was quite a lot."
The Chase airs weekdays at 5pm on ITV.
