Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly have left fans wondering what they're going to do as they confirmed that they were sensationally ending Saturday Night Takeaway. The popular duo confirmed they'll be taking a break from their hit ITV show after the 2024 series.
In a video posted to social media on Thursday (May 18), Ant and Dec said reaching the "milestone" of 20 series seemed like the "perfect time to pause for a little while and catch our breath".
In the clip, which showed the pair looking dapper in suits, 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 went on: "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."

Dec added: "And we’ve also decided that our 20th series next year will be the last one for a little while.
