Saturday Night Takeaway viewers in hysterics at Ant’s naughty jokes as he pokes fun at ‘knob’ on Stephen Mulhern’s head

SATURDAY Night Takeaway viewers were in hysterics tonight as Ant McPartlin made a series of naughty jokes at Stephen Mulhern's expense.

The innuendos came thick and fast during the Ant v Dec challenge as the lads competed to see who was the best at handling bowls.

Stephen was lowered from the ceiling ahead of the game dressed as a large gold cup.

Unable to resist, Ant asked: "What's that little knob on your head?"

Things got even more cheeky when Ant was crowned winner.

Revealing the presenter had won him as a prize, Stephen asked: "Where are you going to put me?"

Ant said: "In my back passage."

However, he swiftly clarified he meant in his home, for those who might have thought he meant something else.

Viewers found the segment hilarious, with one writing on Twitter: "So sad SNT finished. You are all brilliant and just love Stephen Mulhern, so funny. Can't wait for In For A Penny to return."

Another posted: "Hahahaha @StephenMulhern: 'So where are you going to put me?' Ant (from @antanddec): 'In the back passage!'"

A third laughed: "Well, well...Ant wants @StephenMulhern in his back passage. so much for being kid-friendly TV eh!"

It was a successful end to the 2021 series that saw the lads deliver seven fun-filled episodes in lockdown.

Mo Gilligan was the final celebrity announcer, while The End of The Show Show was performed by Britain's Go Talent winner Jon Courtenay.
