Paul Henry: broadcaster on his return to TV in New Zealand's version of The Chase - The Sunday Session with Francesca Rudkin

Paul Henry's been a regular presence on New Zealand screens and he's come out of retirement to take on his most anticipated hosting job yet.

He is set to host New Zealand's own version of The Chase - the long-running UK-based game show that Kiwis tune into every week.

Ahead of this version dropping to TVNZ next month, Henry says it's 'daunting' taking on a project like this.

"The show is already so popular in New Zealand, but what's really popular is the British Chase. And we're not doing the British Chase, we're doing the New Zealand Chase."
