Saturday Night Takeaway fans were left in hysterics when Shrek fell over during the ITV show tonight.
Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly were back for the show this weekend, with their Happiest Minute of the Week segment always a fan favourite as people are given a once in a lifetime to bag a ticket to Orlando as part of the end of the series show.
The pair were quick to hand out a number of tickets to deserving audience members and some at home as well, as they were joined on stage by Shrek, Puss in Boots and a number of British Airways cabin crew.
