Holly Willoughby and Rylan Clark caused havoc as they pelted cake at Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly during the final episode of Saturday Night Takeaway this weekend.
Ant and Dec announced last year that they would be halting the ITV1 entertainment series, with the final instalment of season 20 airing this week.
And their friends Holly, 43, and Rylan, 35, paid them a visit in a bid to seek revenge against the hosts as part of the infamous I’m A Celebrity…Get Out Of Me Ear! prank segment.
Over the years, stars have been put in embarrassing and hilarious situations as they are roped into saying and doing ridiculous things in public while instructed by Ant and Dec via an earpiece.
However, during the final episode, the tables were turned and it was the celebrities who were instructing hosts Ant and Dec what to do as they dined out in a restaurant with unsuspecting members of the public.
