Saturday Night Takeaway will be pre-recorded this weekend with Ant and Dec presenting the “best bits” of the series the following week, says Stephen Mulhern.
The Geordie duo hosted their final live show last weekend and revealed they would be filming the remaining episodes in advance.
Today In for a Penny presenter Stephen revealed further about details about what viewers can expect.
He told This Morning: “I think they’re doing the Best Bits. In fact I know they’re doing the Best Bis so they’ll be on from 7pm until 8pm and then from 8pm onwards In For a Penny will be on.
“It’s actually quite nice for a change to have Ant and Dec as my warm-up. I’ve not told them that yet, but now they’ll now.”
The coronvavirus pandemic has forced channels to halt production on TV’s biggest shows.
Last Saturday Ant and Dec’s show made history by going ahead without a studio audience.
It got record viewers of 11million as households across the country tuned in for one of the last remaining live telly shows on the box.
They announced on air last week that this weekend’s show is pre recorded.
It will feature the Men in Brown finale and some of Ant & Dec’s favourite moments in pre-recorded links and they will be at home watching alongside the viewers.
Men In Brown is one of their ongoing sketches, which sees the presenters try to work out which of their celeb pals is secretly an alien.
Next week’s show is Saturday Night Takeaways’s Best Bits.
Ant and Dec’s other show Britain’s Got Talent will continue to air its pre-recorded auditions – but the live shows hang in the balance.
