Tonight, Ant and Dec celebrated their 100th episode of Takeaway, and their challenge was a quiz to find out who knew the most about the programme.

During a quick fire round, Stephen asked how many times the word Saturday is heard in the current opening credits.

Ant pressed his buzzer and said 12, but Stephen - who was also sporting a mystery plaster on his forehead - told him he was wrong and it was actually on four times.

Ant pulled a bashful face while Stephen scolded him saying: "Sort it out" before moving on.

However, fans weren't convinced, and after double checking, they took to Twitter to tell point out that Stephen, 40, had given the wrong right answer.

One viewer wrote: "Pretty sure "Saturday" is said 6 times not 4????#SaturdayNightTakeaway" while another added: "actually 6 times not 4".

A third agreed, tweeting: "The word Saturday is actually said 6 times in the #SaturdayNightTakeaway theme. @antanddec @StephenMulhern @ITV".

A fourth wrote: "It's 6 times that the word "Saturday" is mentioned in the theme and NOT 4, so @StephenMulhern is WRONG."
