Ant McPartlin issued an apology to viewers during the jam-packed Saturday Night Takeaway final. The Geordie duo returned for their two-hour epic final show after 20 series on the silver screen. They promised to throw “the party to end all parties” to close off the last-ever episode and brought back their beloved segment Ring My Bell.
The comedy duo recruited three audience members and their neighbours for a round of cheeky antics during the TV special. During the segment, one contestant accidentally swore on air, prompting Ant to award a holiday to another contestant as a consolation for the final episode. Fans took to social media to discuss the chaos that unfolded on the show, with one user commenting on a contestant’s swearing and another praising the duo’s ability to both apologize and make jokes about it.
Then, Ant sustained a bloody injury during the live finale after a football joke went wrong. Despite this, both stars were able to laugh it off and continue with the show.
