Ant Almost Meets Andy Murray & Dec’s Wearing a Wire

10:11Ant McPartlin:The ability to press a red buzzer and crush dreams or to make them all come true. Or maybe it's just the money. It's the money, isn't it? Molly is getting married in August and would love a signed Simon headshot to keep. It will take pride of place on our memory table amongst our family photos, which I think is exactly what Simon would have wanted. It's a memory table. Yeah. so that's Molly's swap what do you think of the silly goose that lives here I love it and I think it would be perfect for him

10:42Declan Donnelly:because remember I'm swapping this for Simon that's true so this is she'd like that even more if this went all the way in was outside his house in Malibu imagine that imagine that outside his house in Malibu a silly goose lives here yes put it on the short list

10:56Ant McPartlin:next it's on the short list hello lovely team hi I would love to offer a selection of comics from 1979 1979 and 1982. As a 29-year-old woman, I was struggling for ideas of things I could swap, but I excitedly asked around my friends and family, and my dad dug out these for me from when he was a kid. We looked for ones from 1975, but couldn't get that close. They are really cool, and as Bino boys, I think and in doubt will appreciate. Wasn't sure which comics would be best, so we went with Roy of the Rovers, 2000 AD, which cost only 12p of Earth money in 1979, and battle action. Very interesting for some historical analysis.

11:37Ant McPartlin:Will you swap with me, please? All the best from Meg. Thanks, Meg. No, I won't. Oh, I like these. Do you? No way. Oh, Roy of the Rovers. No, no, boring. Oh, you're kidding. I was really hoping you were going to go this. No, thank you. Alison, sunny, sunny Bournemouth says, I'd like to swap my unsigned Simon Cowell mug for your signed photo of Simon. As you can tell, I really love Simon Cowell and would really like this picture. I also have your best interest at heart because I don't want you to miss seeing Simon's face in the same picture so you can have the mug and still see him in the morning when you're having your coffee.

12:12Ant McPartlin:Love and respect, guys, from Alice.

12:15Declan Donnelly:Yeah, I heard you and I'm looking at the picture on the screen and I can see the mug of Simon Cowell in it in a heart shape. What's the other picture of? That's her.

12:22Ant McPartlin:That's Alice in Sonny Sonny Bournemouth.

12:24Declan Donnelly:So she's on one side and Simon's on the other side. Win-win. Has she got a top on? No. he's topless and she's topless yes I'm in

12:36Ant McPartlin:it's one of those ones when you put the hot water in as well the heart disappears and you see everything and you see it all you see everything

12:42Declan Donnelly:I'm in I'd like to see what else is coming I can't make a comment on this right now I feel under pressure stop pressuring me

12:50Ant McPartlin:alright I don't know what to do with that this one is from Ross McRae I live in South Ayrshire in Scotland and I have something to swap for the Simon Cowell sign photo I am a magician and I would like to teach you both some close-up magic over Zoom to impress your kids and your wives. My brother Fraser's birthday is coming up in July and he's a big fan of Simon C. So its arrival would be good timing and he will love the fact I got him a shout out on the podcast regardless. Do you not fancy some magic? Nah.

13:21Declan Donnelly:I know you do. I do. He's offering a Zoom call where he shows us magic tricks. But anyway, Stephen Muller does all this for me. I can do that. He comes around. He doesn't tell us how to do it, though. Yeah, you're right. You're right. No, thank you. No. Slim pickings, isn't it? That's so disappointing. And I don't think Simon would be into that.

13:41Ant McPartlin:I thought I was going to have some magic lessons while reading me Royal Rovers.

13:44Declan Donnelly:None of it's for you.

13:45Ant McPartlin:It should be.

13:46Declan Donnelly:Are you listening? None of it's for you. It's for the main man here. Well, I can have a little look before it goes to him. No, you won't. What, are you going to join the Zoom call? Yes. You're not invited? I am. He said it was for both of us to impress the kids and the wife. But I've changed the rules since you wrote that now. I need to impress my wife. Okay? I want to impress my wife. I find it very difficult to impress her. Just clear away your piles. I'll impress your wife.

14:11Ant McPartlin:This one's from Callum and Freddie. Hi, guys. My name is Callum, and my best friend's name is Freddie. Oh, I like these two. We would love the Simon autograph, because we are probably the biggest Got Talent fans in the world. By fans, I mean we are completely Got Talent obsessed. We watch every single show going, spend time researching the in-depth history of Got Talent and its development, and are both able to memorise various statistics from the show, and we haven't got a clue how we do it. The autograph would be something really special for us to have and maybe take turns with, if we can't agree who's Walsh or God.

14:45Ant McPartlin:Take turns with. Sounds weird, doesn't it? Doesn't it, though? Yeah.

14:52Declan Donnelly:It does. I know what you mean. It just still sounds weird. Anywho, let's get by that. Don't know how old they are, so let's not go there. In exchange for it, we would like to swap you. Uh-huh.

15:05Ant McPartlin:I'm listening. This is good. Thinking of where this is going. Yeah. A Simon Cowell bobblehead. A Simon Cowell doll. All of Simon Cowell's books. You see, our thinking is that seeing as Simon gave you his autograph as your leaving present this year, Maybe you could give him these next year as his leave-in present. That's a great idea. Love the pod. Respect, guys. Callum and Freddie. P.S. At least it's not tap shoes. Very good point. Good point, Callum and Freddie. Very good point. There we are. They're on the screen. There's a cowl doll, the bobblehead, lots of books. Lots of books.

15:41Declan Donnelly:Who knew he was such a prolific author? What do you think? That's a yes. That's a potential. That's a big possibility.

15:48Ant McPartlin:Hi, gang. Hi. Hey. Jack. Hi. The Simon Cowell signed photo is inspired. So much so, I've done my own for the swap. What do you say, Ant? A signed photo of my tap shoes. Oh, for God's sake. Much love, Caroline. Wow, that is good. And that is random. That is good. That is good. And random. Good and random. Right, okay.

16:14Declan Donnelly:Puss? That is a possible. Okay. That is a possible. Because we're not having it. we said we'd never swap with the tap shoes or a picture of the tap shoes or a 3D hologram of the tap shoes but we're not swapping are we? No. Simon's swapping.

16:26Ant McPartlin:Ha ha! Unlucky! So on our shortlist today we have the signed photo of the tap shoes. Yes. We have the Simon Cowell memorabilia the bobblehead the blue. Yes. Yeah. And finally we have the unused doormat which reads a silly goose lives here. Do you think you will swap with one of those three? Yes, I do. Amazing. Find out which one he swaps after this break.

17:02Ant McPartlin:You join us at a very tense moment here in the hanging out studio. Ant is swapping the signed Simon Calfoto for one lucky person here. Will it be Molly's Dormat, which reads, A Silly Goose Lives Here? Will it be Callum and Freddie's Simon Cowell memorabilia? Or will it be Caroline's signed tap shoe photo? Ant, who are you swapping with? Who's our lucky swapper this week? I have made my decision.

17:35Declan Donnelly:And I think I'm going to swap the signed Simon Cowell picture for the Silly Goose Dormat!

17:48congratulations Molly well done Molly

17:50Ant McPartlin:we'll have your doormat that will be winging its way to Malibu for Simon Cowell's doorstep I would love it

17:57Declan Donnelly:we'll film it and hopefully he'll film him getting it and we'll put it all on our socials yeah let's do that yeah great okay good thank you well done Molly you'll be thrilled with that right so no longer it's no longer mine goodbye Simon that is sad that is sad go with my like, mwah. Ooh, he's a good kisser. Mwah. Take that, wrap it up.

18:20Ant McPartlin:Send me to your Simon Cowell, please. We've got a little space on our shelf behind us now where Simon Cowell once stood. Well, where's yours? Oh. I've got mine in here. Let's just put mine up. Let's put that there. There you go. There he is. I might swap that next week.

18:40Declan Donnelly:You been out shopping? No. Still not? I've been at home. I've been at home, not spending a penny. I went on. You know, we played. I had a week. You know, we played golf last week. We did indeed. And everybody has got these. Have you heard of these golf watches? Do you know what a golf watch is? No. So basically, you download the course onto your watch. And whatever course you're playing, when you hit your first shot, it'll tell you you're 200 yards away from the green or you're, you know, there's a bunker there or whatever. You've got one of them, haven't you? Yeah, I do. I did have one. Well, I've still got it, but I can't find a wire.

19:19Declan Donnelly:So when we played last week, everybody had a golf watch on, bar me. And I missed having a golf watch because mine's run out of battery and someone's taken the wire. I don't know where the wire is. So I was like, right, I'm going to buy a new wire from the golf watch. That's a necessity, right? That's permitted, right? It's a necessity. The wire's gone missing. Does that count? What do you mean? Shut up, Jack. Where's Lola? So I went on to Amazon and I'm on there. There's only a new generation version of our watch out. Oh, that's very tempting, isn't it? Is that a necessity? Well, it's like all of, when you look at the greens, the colour, the corders, and you can see the bunkers in real detail.

20:07Declan Donnelly:There's flybys of the halls. I mean, it makes yours look old school and mine. But it was£349. Spenny that. It's very spenny for a golf watch that we don't use too often. So I just bought a replacement wire. Don't applaud me. I hated every second of it. Do you know what? The fact that I outed myself as having this spending ban has actually stopped me spending. but the fact that I've told you guys and all of you lot now know not that you'd know if it was an old version or a new version on my wrist but yeah I tell you now in the hope that I receive a small plastic banana as a reward for not spending I've got me back here is there anything else you've been really tempted by yes the McLaren golf clubs but obviously that's not allowed I just keep seeing them everywhere I know keep seeing the tour players I think so I have them.

21:08Declan Donnelly:I went down to our golf club on the weekend, right? And I played six holes with my daughter, Daisy. And because we haven't really played too often together because she'd been to university. So we played six holes. The weather was so bad, we chucked it off and came home. But there was a club championship going on. Guess who was top of the leaderboard? Because everyone's going, where are you in the leaderboard? Are you on the leaderboard for the club championship? I was like, I didn't know there was a club championship. But there was a set of McLaren golf clubs out the front. Tom Holland. No, not Tom Holland.

21:40Declan Donnelly:Declan Rice. Not Declan Rice. Andy Murray. Andy Murray. Can you believe it? I can believe it. Do you reckon those were his clubs? The McLarens? Definitely. I bet he's got the new golf watch. I bet he's got the new... Yeah, that's why. That's why he's got the leaderboard. He's got the new golf watch. He can see the bunker in detail. Yeah, he can. All those flybys of the halls is really helping him out. He's an incredible golfer, apparently. Yeah. And his dedication to improving his golf game is as good as when he was playing tennis, apparently. Wow. Come on. Come on. I've sidetracked you with the McLaren Golf Club.

22:17Declan Donnelly:But I didn't buy them. And I didn't buy the golf watch. I bought a wire. Thank you, Douglas. Thank you. How many bananas you got there now? Thank you for your pennies. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Eight bananas. Yay. That's it. We're finished. I can spend, spend, spend. Come on, McLaren, gold gloves. Oh, I broke my microphone. He's going to say you're going to have to buy another one. Didn't we decide that we were going to give you a pound Amazon voucher for every banana? Yes, you did. So for my Amazon voucher is£8. Yeah, so how many pounds you'll have to spend at Amazon? I can't do the maths.

22:58A million pounds.

23:02Ant McPartlin:this is being recorded yeah um because we are going we're recorded early not just recorded yeah no guys guys we're being recorded guys oh my god are you on a wire guys i've got news for you we're all being recorded um we're recording this early because next week we are going away to portugal I don't know why I did that accent.

Can't wait. and I won't be able to wear my golf watch because it's mini golf it wouldn't count that course is not in your watch I'd be charged up by then the wire would have come by then yeah the course is definitely not but there's no time for us to play golf is there do you remember getting to play the course let me tell you the story so what do you mean the story about Holy Moly a story what do you mean the story well just shut up and listen one day once upon a time

It's going to be lovely. It's going to be Portugal in June, playing golf. Portugal. Portugal. It's going to be Portugal in June, playing golf. Brilliant show. You've seen it in the States. It's been a big hit in America. It's been a hit in Australia. Really good fun. We're like, oh, go on then. That sounds really terrible. Let's do it. So we sign up to do the show. About a week later, they come through with the logistics. And they say, oh.

24:50Ant McPartlin:All the boring stuff. All the boring stuff. And then they go, We should probably tell you the course is incredible and it's really colourful and it's really brilliantly lit. So it's much prettier on screen if we shoot it at night. It looks better. Right, okay. Get it? Yeah, right, got it.

25:08Declan Donnelly:That's how the American version was. That's the version that we liked.

25:10Ant McPartlin:Yeah, we're in. So then we get the schedule through. We start recording at 10 o 'clock at night and we wrap at 5 o 'clock in the morning. Jack, I see you're not coming out for that.

25:20Declan Donnelly:No. No. I am. Fiona is. Fiona is. Ha ha. I think it's the best of both worlds. How come? We get to go to bed at five, six hours sleep, get up, sunbathe.

25:30Ant McPartlin:And then go to work at eight o 'clock. Yeah, we snooze by the pool. Snooze by the pool. Yeah. I can't snooze in the sun. I will be very much. No way, lobster boy. Free read. I'll be like a rasher of bacon. Shrivel in the sun. Can't do that.

25:46Declan Donnelly:But apart from the grueling schedule and the all-nighters, it's going to be a lot of fun.

25:52Ant McPartlin:I can't wait. I'm quite excited about the All-Nighters. Shall we hand over to TV's Anton Deck for a real-time update from Portugal? Yes. Should we do that? How are the All-Nighters going, Anton Deck? Okay. They're going well. Do we look tired? We are a little bit tired, but we are having a lot of fun. You guys are going to love it out here. We're having a ball. Oh, no. Oh.

26:20Ant McPartlin:Well, note to self, remember to say something really, that is very hard. What's catering like?

26:26Declan Donnelly:Because I love catering on jobs, don't you? Yeah. What's catering like? TV's on the deck? Catering's been good. Yeah, it's been good. I had a vegetable curry today, which is very unmeathe. It's not very, like, yeah. But I liked it.

26:39Ant McPartlin:You'll be surprised how much you enjoy it. Oh, wicked. That's good. Yeah, sounds good. Oh, tasty. I look forward to that. Do I need a jumper for the evenings? You do, Dec. You do. Even a little light jacket. But yes, I've got you a jumper. It's here. I'll leave it in your dressing room for you. Oh. That hasn't helped. That hasn't helped. I don't know. What's the time there?

27:06Declan Donnelly:The time is 10 to 10. Exactly the same time as back home. What a stupid question. No time difference. Stupid question. Idiot. Same time, isn't it? Same time. That was a real bad use of time travel. Whatever this is. Whatever this is, it was a bad use of it. Why don't we ask about the football scores? Good idea. Did England win their first World Cup game? Well, how do we know that? How do we know that? It's still too early. We're not that far in the future. Yeah, we're not in the future yet. That's tomorrow.

27:39Ant McPartlin:That's confused me even more. That's really confused me. So we're pre-recorded and we're recorded early and they're being recorded early. So nobody's seen the football. I don't get it. I don't understand. Jamie Oliver reached out this week. Did he? Yeah. About time. He's free. Ah, is he? When? September. Come on in. He's free. Come on in. He's free in July, but you're not here. Oh, lucky, Jamie Oliver. Some of us are busy too.

28:10We were on holiday, aren't we? Yeah. We're on holiday. In Portugal, maybe. Oh, that's a shame. But do you think maybe I should just invite him in to an empty studio? Yeah, I think you should.

28:23Declan Donnelly:I think he should come in and just... That'll teach him. Yeah. Yeah, let's just invite him, but we're ten-roll here. Keep the cameras rolling when he comes in. Oh, guys. I'm crying. He'll be crying. and we'll post it on the internet. Get him cancelled. Yeah, cancelled Jamie Oliver. And let's tell him it's fancy dress.

28:47Ant McPartlin:That's going to be hilarious. Stay tuned for that.

28:51Declan Donnelly:Let's hope he doesn't listen to this because our plan will be foiled. Oh, yeah. Didn't think of that. It's International Picnic Day. Ooh, International Picnic Day. I'm surprised you didn't come up with that one. No, I'm surprised. I love a day. How has that one passed you by?

29:09Ant McPartlin:I don't know. Two of my favourite things. A day.

29:12Declan Donnelly:Who does two like that? Who does two like that? Like, do you do two like that, don't you?

29:17Ant McPartlin:No, I do two like that. I've got my thumb for those of you listening. Go on. That's how they do it in Europe. That's how they do it in Portugal. Portugal. If you're just listening, I've got my thumb and my forefinger? Pointy finger? Index. Index finger. Index finger. What's my forefinger? Where's your forefinger? How dare you? Right, it.

Why don't you like picnics? It's on the ground. What's wrong with that?

30:07Declan Donnelly:In a sweltering summer, sat in your kitchen, it's going on your desk for a picnic. Oh my God, we're just sat in the kitchen all day. Wait until you open the window. Dumb, sort of grass he doesn't like. He's like a bird, like a rash of bacon or something. What's your favourite picky bit? Well, well, well, well, well, well. I love everything. I like scotch eggs. I like sausage rolls. Yeah? Yeah? Not so much a quiche. I know that's very picnic-y, but I don't like eggs. So quiches are... I can have a slice, but I'm not mad at it. You love eggs? I love eggs. I'm not mad at a quiche. You don't like a quiche?

30:50No, no, no. I like little cocktail sausages. Yes.

Oh, yeah, let's. As you asked, here is my brutally honest opinion on the form of those push-ups. I noticed that you kept your body in a nice straight line from your head to your heels, which is an excellent foundation. You also positioned your hands well and lowered your chest nicely, showing good control. Overall, it was a solid display of form. Really? That's handy, though, isn't it? Like, if you're working out at home...

38:35Declan Donnelly:Yeah. Just on your own. Just on your own. You've got no idea whether you're doing it right, you're doing it wrong. Using that.

38:41Ant McPartlin:Very helpful. That's very helpful. That's really good. But also, you need the right nutrition. Yes, you do. That's an important bit. Gemini, what about food before a workout? Because I love eggs. Should I be eating lots of eggs before I work out or after I work out? No, never. And also give me some other high protein snack ideas too, please. Yes, please do, Gemini. Gemini says eggs are fantastic for fitness, but timing is everything. Because they contain both proteins and fats, they digest slowly. So after your workout is the best time to eat your eggs. Before you work out, avoid eating lots of eggs.

39:19Ant McPartlin:Before workout... Because you're... Maybe, yeah. Yeah. Scare your PT off. Before a workout... Yes. You could have some Greek yogurt with a drizzle of honey. No, nice. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's nice. Yeah, I'm up for that. Gemini says, rice cakes with a thin layer of peanut butter and banana slices. Oh, now you're talking. That sounds good. Anything with banana slices. Anything. That's a great energy boost. Other than the next. Without it feeling heavy. Then great food for after workout, hard boiled eggs and a handful of almonds. Thank you very much, Gemini. Well done, Gemini.

Apple TV. Yes. Matthew Rhys. Yes. he's Welsh yes but not in the show I was going to say he's American in the show very good American accent is he so I'll give you a brief synopsis of the plot please do he is the mayor of this small island just off Boston in America got it right and he wants more tourists and he really wants more tourists he's a bit desperate right and

40:50Ant McPartlin:hang on before you go any further how would you categorise this is it a thriller is it a is it a well it's a horror

40:56Declan Donnelly:ooh it's a spooky Rocky horror. It's a dark comedy. Right, got it. And each episode is slightly different to the one before in the fact that a different director directed it. Like one director directed three, but they're like flip-flop. And so the style is slightly different. And one might look a little bit like the horror movie The Ring. And the next one might look like Carrie, you know, the Stephen King novel that was turned into the horror film. So he's the mayor of this island. He's trying to get tourists in. On the first night, there's an earthquake. What they think is an earthquake. But all the locals are saying, that's not an earthquake.

41:38Declan Donnelly:That's the island waking up. And evil is about to rise. And he's like, ah, shut up. We just need more tourists. Because there's a guy coming from the New York Times to review one of the restaurants. Is that his accent? Because that's not great. That was me. Oh, okay. Good, good, good, good. Ah, shut up. We just need more tourists. That's pretty good, right? we need to steal some from Portugal so it's him trying to dismiss these theories of evil and bad spirits he doesn't believe it he doesn't believe it but stuff happens and now I'm up to date now so I've caught up and now they come out weekly which is so annoying old fashioned the old fashioned way of doing telly old fashioned telly telly we're involved in but it's really good it's really good you like him he's really good The female lead, I don't know her name, is one of the funniest actors I've seen in a TV show for a long time.

42:32Declan Donnelly:Really? Her performance is brilliant. Really brilliant. Who's this lady?

42:36Ant McPartlin:She's very funny.

42:38Declan Donnelly:Who is she? So it is a dark comedy because there's very funny bits in it. But there is jump out. I watch it with my wife who does not like horror stuff. No. And she insists that we go back to it. Even though she's scared, she's like, let's watch another one. but she puts my hands over her eyes and she's like when the music gets what's wrong with her hands

42:58Ant McPartlin:over her eyes I don't know I've got that she always gets my hands are yours slightly bigger

43:01Declan Donnelly:but she's using her yeah my hands are bigger to get your hands to cover her face yeah that works why didn't she just do that yeah you're right my hands could be doing other things yeah use your own hands

43:13Ant McPartlin:I've got one question for you though does it contain zombies no cool I'm in can't do zombies why scared it makes me anxious So you never watched The Last of Us? Nah. Really? Nah, can't do it. That's such a good TV show. Can't do it. Can't do zombies. Why? Makes me too anxious. Oh my God. They're going to come and eat me brain. They wouldn't be there very long.

43:37Declan Donnelly:Done. Anyway, I can't really rate it, but so far, so far, it's bubbling up with the seven banana rating. Really? Yeah, it's that good. Wow. It's that good. How many more you got left? I'm not sure how many's in the series. Maybe 10, so probably a couple more. Okay. that's a strong showing yeah or a partial series what do you call that actress have we found out yet Kato Flynn she's very funny very funny I can guarantee she'll win awards next year really yeah

44:06Ant McPartlin:well done Kato

44:07Declan Donnelly:I mean I can't guarantee if you're a kid if you're watching this in no way can I guarantee you're going to win awards

44:13Ant McPartlin:if you don't win awards then Ant will send you all of his awards you've got 20 odd NTAs coming your way if you don't win any awards

44:22Declan Donnelly:Okay, that's quite clear, isn't it?

44:24Ant McPartlin:Will you send a one NTA?

44:25Declan Donnelly:If she doesn't win any awards in the next calendar yet, when the award season starts, I'll send her an NTA. Yeah, absolutely. This is an advert for TV licensing.

44:37Ant McPartlin:What are you watching on telly at the minute? The World Cup, OBS. It's so good. It's so good. A summer, I know we've said this loads, a summer with a football tournament in it is just brilliant. It is great. Because people who aren't even ordinarily fans of football will get out and watch the games and you kind of get swept along by the optimism and the fun of the tournament. I just love it. It's such a feel-good vibe.

45:04Declan Donnelly:And because it's on in the Americas, it's on a bit later, which is a shame. But that's not bad because you don't miss the games. Yeah, I don't mind that too much. It's not like you're at work and you're missing the games. You just hear a bit bleary-eyed in the morning. Well, that's all right. we can put up with a month's worth of tired mornings. There's a few of those 2 a.m. ones that I'm not staying up for. A couple of the Scotland games, you're like, oh, ouch. That's a bit late. That's a bit late. But yeah, I'll watch on. There's so many good catch-ups. Yes. Isn't there? Yeah, all the highlights show.

45:34Yeah, they're great.

45:35Declan Donnelly:It's so good. Why do you think watching England for us is such a communal thing to do?

45:42Ant McPartlin:I think it's just... Tribal? Yeah, it's tribal. It's, you know, it's every couple of years that there's a big tournament. You want to get behind the country. Yeah. But I'm like that with all the home nations whenever they play. I am. And the Republic of Ireland. Yeah, I am. Yeah, I love it. I love it.

45:58Declan Donnelly:Wales played, when Scotland are in this time. Yeah, the Republic of Ireland I follow, Northern Ireland, all of them. I always mark that on me little wall chart. Do you still do a wall chart? Of course you do a wall chart. Everybody does a World Cup wall chart, right? Got to, you got to get into it. I love it so much. So yeah, I'm watching that. What are you watching? Other than that.

46:16Ant McPartlin:Well, there's that. and of course summer your other great passion summer viewing for me always means we have to watch a little bit of Love Island he loves Love Island it is really good Lola do you remember when you pranked us and you said you were going on Love Island yeah I do yeah I do too and now there is somebody in Love Island called Lola oh yeah there is is it the same person it might be we'll let you decide that I've never seen her face yeah I've never seen her face I don't know what she looks like could be could be her but it's good though as well I love that whole reality daily show where you get to catch up and they do great cliffhangers on Love Island as well.

46:53Ant McPartlin:They do. It's very good cliffhangers. I do love it. Every year, I'm not going to watch it this year. I'm just going to watch the opener and see what they're like. And then he sucked in again. And then I'm sucked in. He sucked in. It's just, it's too much. I'm a sucker for a reality show, which is good because I host a couple of them as well. It's quite handy.
