First look at Saturday Night Takeaway finale as fans post behind the scenes snaps from Florida
SATURDAY Night Takeaway fans have revealed a behind-the-scenes look at the set for this weekend’s grand finale in Florida. Scarlett Moffatt and Stephen Mulhern jetted out to the US earlier today along with the first group of lucky viewers who got a place on the plane. In Florida work is currently underway to build the enormous set where the show will take place. Declan Donnelly – who flew out earlier this week – will be presenting the show alone again after Ant McPartlin went back to rehab. The large set is made up of three stages in front of the river running through Universal’s Orlando resort. Each of the three stages is being built around brightly coloured blue and red pillars. The audience will be able to sit and watch the show from raised banks covered in grass. Earlier today, Scarlett posted a selfie with Stephen from inside the Virgin plane that’s flying out the lucky viewers who will watch the show live. Some fans are already on site and have been … [Read more...] about First look at Saturday Night Takeaway finale as fans post behind the scenes snaps from Florida
Saturday Night Takeaway: Slick and skilful, Dec showed just why he can thrive without Ant
3 Dec without Ant felt deeply strange. The ubiquitous Geordie duo always appear in the same formation: Ant on the left and Dec on the right, as viewers look at their screens. Tonight there was a void where Ant usually stands. It was like Morecambe without Wise or fish without chips. Viewers could be forgiven for thinking their television was on the blink. This historic live episode saw Declan Donnelly host Saturday Night Takeaway (ITV) without partner Anthony McPartlin, who has returned to rehab following his recent drink-driving charge. ITV pulled last week’s instalment in response but decided the last two shows of the series would go ahead, with Donnelly helming them solo. Without his best buddy - with whom he’s enjoyed a three-decade bromance, much of it on-screen - it was impossible not to root for Donnelly. He duly delivered. This was an efficient entertainment machine, skilfully steered, and likely to pull in even higher ratings than … [Read more...] about Saturday Night Takeaway: Slick and skilful, Dec showed just why he can thrive without Ant
See Dec present Saturday Night Live without Ant and what viewers thought of it
Viewers have been revealing what they thought as one half of Ant and Dec – Declan Donnelly – took on the task of presenting prime-time favourite Saturday Night Takeaway without his best friend for the first time. Ant McPartlin is in rehab after crashing his car and being charged with drink-driving and viewers were right behind Dec as he met the challenge of appearing on TV without his sidekick for the first time in 20 years. But, judging by the reaction of the audience, he was more than up to it. There had been speculation that Dec would send a heartfelt plea to Ant, who is battling problems with alcohol and an addiction to prescription drugs. But in the end Dec didn’t make any reference to his partner and best pal, Ant, instead running down the stairs high-fiving guests as Paloma Faith kicked off the show with a song. As the Chronicle reports, if there were any nerves, he did well to hide them. Stepping out to present Saturday Night Takeaway alone for the first … [Read more...] about See Dec present Saturday Night Live without Ant and what viewers thought of it
