Children 'crying' after Ant and Dec Saturday Night Takeaway announcement

Fans of Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway were left unhappy at an announcement made at the end of the show on Saturday.

Stephen Mulhern said that the next instalment will be the final episode of the year.

The seventh and final episode will air this coming Saturday, April 3, with Ant and Dec appearing alongside special guest announcer Mo Gilligan.

At the end of the episode, a voiceover from ITV confirmed the edition next Saturday would be the last of the year, Birmingham Live reports.

One viewer wrote: "How is next week already to final show of the series?"

And a second said: "Feels like it's only been on 2 weeks," another said, with crying emojis.

A third commented: "Oh don't....my 6 year old just cried. Apparently she is going to ring Ant and Dec every Sarurday night as she will miss them....not sure how she is planning on doing that. They will be lots of tears next weekend."

And a fourth wrote: "My 6 year old son is gutted that it’s the last Saturday night takeaway next week.....he would very much like to know, why is it not on all year round??"

A fifth moaned: "I can’t believe that next week is the final one" accompanied by crying emojis.

Ant and Dec Saturday Night Takeaway will air on Saturday on ITV1 with episodes available via the ITV Hub after they are broadcast.
