As fans know, the pair usually always sit and stand in the same order, with Ant to the right of Dec,

So anybody looking at them sees Ant on the left and Dec on the right, in alphabetical order - a trick some use to identify who is Ant and who is Dec.

And when they first sat down at St James', the presenters were sat in their usual order.

But later in the game, Ant and Dec switched seats and were pictured 'the wrong way round", as viewers watching on Sky Sports noticed.
