Ant and Dec | A Day In The Life…

A Day In The Life…

March 20th, 2009

Ever wondered what Ant & Dec get up to behind the scenes of Saturday Night Takeaway? Or what’s involved in the lead up to a typical show? Now’s your chance to find out!

To celebrate the final episode of the series, Officialantanddec.com is pleased to bring you a VIP tour of Saturday Night Takeaway!

We recently received an invite to follow the boys around all day as they rehearsed episode three of Takeaway at the London Studios. We thought it was going to be a cinch and involve sitting around eating canapÃ©s and sipping champagne all day…but believe us, this rehearsing lark is a serious business!

Ant & Dec and the entire production team work really hard all week to make the show as entertaining as possible and that involves fine tuning right up to the final seconds before transmission.

Find out for yourself by watching our exclusive three-part serialisation of a day in the life of Saturday Night Takeaway. Accompany Ant & Dec around the studio, take a peek inside their dressing room and see the moment two lucky website winners get to meet their heroes! Watch all the action unfold on A&D TV by clicking on the images below!

someone said “why no beat the boys series?” to add to that, i would like to say, why no jiggy bank? its far more fun than the mouse trap? when i see the mouse trap i get angry because people don’t go where the money is. i no tey dont get to see a map like we do at home, but still….grrr. anyway, they were the only faults. and i suppose if u leave stuff out for a year, u can bring it back and people will enjoy it more next time. i don’t know. lol. well done for wining yet again dec! i wanted you to win, right up until the final. then i wanted ant to win. sorry dec, but ants was far more entertaining that yours! (although urs was still very good and the singing was actually better).

love to you both! xxx

Hey guys, fantastic series as usual. Congrats to Dec on winning, sorry Ant - you deserved to win! One question - why no “beat the boys” this series? I always loved that as it was both of you against other celebrities as opposed to each other. Maybe next series?
Love Roz xxx
