Fans will get to see how the hilarious show pans out in this weekend’s Saturday Night Takeaway.  

When Ant and Dec returned to the small screen last month, they reached an average of 7.3million viewers despite fans complaining of audio issues throughout the launch. 

The Geordie stars have held on to their audience as they had the same average for the first show last year, although the 2020 peak of 8.4million was higher than this year’s 8.1million.

The figures make the hit the second highest rating programme of the year so far, outside of news and sport across any channel, only beaten by ITV’s The Masked Singer. 

The 2021 series opened to 1.2million 16-34 viewers, making it one of the highest rating programmes of the year for this demographic, outside of news and sport.
