With the final due to take place next week, Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly were back on screens tonight for their penultimate.
But during the start of the show they revealed they’d made history by having Lenny Rush as their Star Guest Announcer.
BAFTA-winning child actor, Lenny, 15, is best known for starring in Daisy May Cooper’s BBC show Am I Being Unreasonable?
After he introduced the Geordie duo to the studio, they welcomed him, with Ant revealing Lenny is their youngest Guest Announcer.
Saturday Night Takeaway fans left sobbing as Ant and Dec made sad announcement
Lenny then mentioned how he’s never met Ant but bumped into Dec at last year’s NTAs.
Meanwhile, expectant dad Ant and dad-of-one Dec, both 48, will bow out of Saturday Night Takeaway in a massive two-hour long episode.
It will air from 7pm on Saturday, April 13th across ITV1 and ITVX.
Last week’s episode of the star-studded series featured names like Emma and Matt Willis, Sam Thompson, Josie Gibson, Jordan North, and JLS.
It also featured a throwback clip of Ant and Dec on their first ever episode as they brought back a segment called ‘Home Run’.
But the presenting pair caught viewers off guard as they reminded their fans that there are only two shows left of the current series.
It led to an avalanche of gutted fans taking to social media to share how much they’d miss Saturday Night Takeaway.
