ITV have confirmed the return of Saturday Night Takeaway – and fans only have a matter of days to wait before it airs.
The long-running family show will return to ITV1 with its 20th series at 7:00pm on February 24, months after hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly announced its temporary hiatus.
The pair will continue their exclusive working relationship with ITV, hosting hit shows including I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!, Britain’s Got Talent and Limitless Win, all of which air across ITV1 and ITVX.
But Saturday Night Takeaway will be given a break once the series 20 finale has aired, with its long-term future yet to be determined, either by ITV or its two hosts.
McPartlin and Donnelly previously paused the hugely popular live show in 2009 before returning four years later, in 2013.

Highlights coming up in the live launch show include Stephen Merchant as the Guest Announcer, the unveiling of a brand new little Ant & Dec, a must watch and hilarious Simon Cowell Undercover and a special End of the Show Show featuring singer Becky Hill and Urban Theory.
Later in the series there’s Get Out Of Me Ear: The Revenge; where celebrities who have been hidden camera victims of Ant & Dec over the years get their revenge.
