Ant and Dec forced to apologise as guest swears on Saturday Night Takeaway prank
Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway got off to an awkward start on Saturday night as one prank left a guest appearing to swear live on air.
During the latest instalment, hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly surprised members in the audience by going to a live feed of their homes. The challenge involved a celebrity guest changing items in their room and the guest having to guess what was different in a bid to win a prize.
However, when Ant and Dec went to one guest in the audience, the audience member was left stunned as they appeared to exclaim: "Oh f**k! Oh, Jesus!" Viewers were left shocked over the moment as they took to Twitter, now X, to ask whether the guest had swore.
One person said: "'Ohh f**k.. ohh Jesus #SaturdayNightTakeaway" with laughing emojis, a different account put: "Did he just swear?? lol #SaturdayNightTakeaway", another wrote: "Saturday night TV.. Oh f**k!! #SaturdayNightTakeaway" while another added: "Did he just say "f**k"? #SaturdayNightTakeaway."

Elsewhere on Saturday's show, ITV chat show legend Lorraine Kelly appeared in the show's popular Get Out Of Me Ear segment, which saw the Scottish presenter cause chaos in a department store with hilarious results.
It comes as the 20th series launch of Ant & Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway has secured the biggest overnight audience of the year for ITV so far, the broadcaster revealed last month. The first episode was watched by an average audience of 4.9 million, with 5.6 million tuning in at its peak.
Ant and Dec are set to take a break from the show at the conclusion of the series as they said they felt the 20th "milestone" was the "perfect time to pause for a little while and catch our breath".
After the variety show takes a break, Ant and Dec will continue their exclusive working relationship with ITV, as hosts of popular shows including I’m A Celebrity … Get Me Out Of Here!, Britain’s Got Talent and Limitless Win.
