He continues: ‘And then Thursday, and Friday, and Saturday, and I chill on Sunday’

Ant’s return to Saturday Night Takeaway had been much anticipated after the show took a hiatus last year in the wake of his drink-drive arrest.
The presenter took a break from presenting duties after he was arrested for drink-driving in March 2018, while he and Dec were still hosting Saturday Night Takeaway.
McPartlin told police he was ‘ashamed and mortified’ after crashing his car while drink-driving with his mother in the passenger seat.

His new licence was issued in July 2019, MailOnline understands.
Ant’s £86,000 fine eclipsed the £54,000 imposed on footballer Yaya Toure for the same offence in 2016, reported at the time to be the biggest sanction of its kind in the UK.
The 20-month ban always had the option of a five-month reduction if Ant completed the referral programme, which he has now completed.
Ant & Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway continues on Saturday night at 7pm on ITV.
