Ant and Dec have announced that they are taking a break from their popular prime time ITV show Saturday Night Takeaway after 20 series.The Geordie duo, comprising of Anthony McPartlin and Declan Donnelly, both 47, said that they wanted to "catch our breath" whilst putting the multi-Bafta-award-winning show on "pause".

Ant said: "We love making Saturday Night Takeaway, but reaching the milestone of 20 series seemed like the perfect time to pause for a little while and catch our breath." Dec added: "We still have a momentous 20th series to look forward to first so we will do our best to go out (for now) with a bang in 2024!" The new series will go ahead in 2024, but after that, the longtime TV presenters will step away to focus on other projects.

Ant and Dec also posted a video to their official joint Twitter account as they both looked dapper in a suit - presumably prior to filming an episode of the show, where they're always suited and booted.

Ant started the proceedings as he explained that next year in 2024, it would be the 20th series of the show, as he said they had some "special look-backs planned" as well as "exciting new items".
