Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly have kicked off filming for the final series of Saturday Night Takeaway.
The presenting duo were joined by their Britain’s Got Talent co-stars Amanda Holden and Simon Cowell as they began work on the upcoming episodes, which are expected to air later this month.
In May, Ant and Dec shared the surprise news that they were ‘taking a break’ from Saturday Night Takeaway after the upcoming 20th series.
Throwing themselves back into work, Declan left his co-stars in hysterics by grabbing a pair of serving lids and brandishing them across his chest.
The scenes were part of the latest prank to feature in the new series, with Amanda, Simon, Ant and Dec attempting to dupe members of the public that came in for an interview.

Roles had reversed for the 20th series and it appeared that Dec was being told by Simon and Amanda what to do and say to the woman being interviewed.
Dec appeared to have a party bag which had a face cut out of himself, donned a party moustache on, pretended to choke on a banana and popped a confetti canon as he ran around the room.
The stars were in high spirits as they recorded the moments inside the office building, with Simon’s assistant seen carrying a crate of beers into the room where filming had taken place.
Everyone was in good spirits as they left the office building, other than Amanda who collapsed an umbrella over her head.
