Rylan Clark has warmed the hearts of many after he was featured in a segment on Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway.On Saturday's episode of the family show, the TV favourite had viewers in stitches as he was pranked by hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly in their Undercover segment.Rylan, who will front the BBC's coverage of Eurovision this year, believed he was spending a day filming for the song contest held in Liverpool.However, unbeknown to him, he had been brought to a studio as mayhem broke out with Ant and Dec secretly watching and listening in.The chaos began as Rylan struggled to get into the studio when the front door appeared to be broken.

However, he good-naturedly followed instructions to find an alternative door.Using an actor who posed as a director, the duo gave instructions via an earpiece to get Rylan to say things in foreign languages, but they meant something completely different to what he was actually saying.

At one point he read out: "Is it true I smell of cheese?" Rylan continued to get pranked as he stood in front of a green screen and he was joined by a man entirely covered in a green suit as he was asked to ride on his back like a motorbike.

He was then told that he would be introducing Armenia's Eurovision song reports Manchester Evening News.Rylan enthusiastically smiled and nodded along as he watched their performance, only for his face to change to an expression of sheer panic as he saw one of the band's costumes burst into flames.
