SATURDAY Night Takeaway fans thought Ant and Dec were just like another very famous comedy duo last night.
The Geordie duo were compared to Morecambe and Wise as they ended the show yesterday pretending to be conductors as Michael Buble performed.

Those watching at home couldn’t help but notice the similiarities and took to Twitter to discuss it.
One person wrote: “#SaturdayNightTakeaway this is proper Morecambe and Wise work here 😀”
Another added: “Ant and Dec’s end of the show show reminiscent of Morecambe and Wise tonight 😊”
While a third remarked: “Clearly time for the Morecambe and Wise section of #SaturdayNightTakeaway.”
Eric Morecambe and Ernie Wise are concerned one of the best loved comedy acts of all time and performed together up until Morecambe’s death in 1984.
Saturday Night Takeaway returned to TV last night after a week off air because of the rugby, but was plagued by a series of technical blunders.
During the Happiest Minute of the Week, the camera cut to the wrong household.
As Dec said the cameras were going to Lancashire, he then called out the couple’s name, however, a family appeared on the screen in their living room and failed to react.

Just as they realised they were on the screen, the camera then switched to another living room where a couple were celebrating.
Moments later, Dec then returned to the first living room and announced that the family had also won a holiday after the wife had saved her family when their car was on fire.
The show also saw Stephen Mulhern make a triumphant comeback after he was absent for five weeks after hospital treatment.
Ant and Dec were thrilled by his return, while saw him dressed as Darth Vader to host an Ant versus Dec challenge where the pair battled to find each other in the dark.
Asked by Dec where he had been, Stephen replied: “Well, let’s just say that when your private jet breaks down and you get stuck in Hollywood there’s not a lot you can do.
“No, seriously, I haven’t been too well but thank you so much for all of your lovely messages.”
Ant told him: “We and the audience are over the moon to have you back, we really are.”
