On tonight's show, Ant said: "But they weren't celebrating. They didn't have a party.

"They categorically deny any suggestions that they had a party.

"And this fictional party definitely didn't involved cheese and wine, or a secret santa."

Co-host Dec then quips: "Evening Prime minister... for now."

Boris Johnson - who it is not suggested attended the alleged gathering - did not deny a party had taken place when asked this week, but said: "I am satisfied myself that the guidelines were followed at all times."

The allegations have also been denied by a string of ministers including Sajid Javid and Dominic Raab, who refuted any suggestion that Covid rules were broken last year.

The Prime Minister’s official spokesman told reporters this week: “There was not a party, and Covid rules have been followed at all times.
