SATURDAY Night Takeaway viewers are delighted after Stephen Mulhern landed his own spin-off show.
The host has been handed a series of his own for his bit from SNT called In For A Penny and fans are utterly thrilled after first thinking it was a joke comment from Declan Donnelly.
ITV confirmed that it wasn't a joke in a statement, saying: "In For A Penny has been commissioned for a series on ITV, hosted by Stephen Mulhern."
And fans are thrilled.
One wrote: "I’ll actually be gutted if they haven’t actually given @StephenMulhern a series of in for a penny in for a grand #SaturdayNightTakeaway"
Another added: "Please let it be true that 'In For A Penny' is getting its own series!! @StephenMulhern #SaturdayNightTakeaway"
However, they were also left horrified tonight by Stephen's gold speedos.
The television presenter stripped off to the surprisingly small pair of swimming smalls on tonight's grand finale as part of a challenge against Declan Donnelly and Scarlett Moffatt.
Viewers flocked to social media to form a support group to cope with what they had just witnessed.
One wrote: "I’m scarred for life by Stephen Mulhern’s gold budgie smugglers. #SaturdayNightTakeaway"
A second added: "Oh my word...Steven mulhern in gold budgie smugglers #neverbethesameagain #SaturdayNightTakeaway"
Another tweeted: "Stephen Mulhern: there are some things you can never un-see #SaturdayNightTakeaway"
A fourth wrote: "Stephen mulhern .. in #goldtrunks #SaturdayNightTakeaway"
Stephen, and Scarlett Moffatt, stepped in to help host the show after Ant McPartlin stepped away from TV commitments when he was charged with drink-driving.
Tonight's ITV show will see Dec host live, as he did last weekend, but this time from Universal Orlando Resort in Florida.
Saturday Night Takeaway regulars Scarlett Moffatt and Stephen Mulhern will also be on duty to help.
The show will feature R&B star Jason Derulo, actress Denise Richards, singer Craig David and pop duo The Rembrandts.
Derulo and The Rembrandts will be performing, former Bond girl Richards is guest announcer, and David will be DJ for the episode.
McPartlin was charged by postal requisition on March 21 after allegedly being involved in a collision with two other cars while he was driving his Mini in Richmond, west London, on March 18.
