Ant and Dec apologise for woman's sweary reaction as she's reunited with family

Ant and Dec were forced to apologise for bad language used in tonight's episode of Saturday Night Takeaway after they reunited a woman with her daughter after two years apart.

The presenting pair returned to screens tonight with another jam-packed edition of the family show.

And viewers saw a guest on the series get emotional as she was surprised with her daughter visiting from Canada during The Masked Singer-themed segment, as she revealed herself on the stage.

The woman exclaimed: "Oh my God!" as she saw her daughter make an appearance on the stage.

Dec said: "You haven't seen her in two years, but she's flown 5,000 miles to be here from Canada. It's your daughter Holly!"

The priceless moment was captured on camera, with fans watching from home and also in the audience.

However during the unexpected moment, the woman accidentally let slip some swear words as she was blown off her feet.

Ant and Dec swiftly made an apology to viewers, telling them: "We'd like to apologise for any bad language that might have been said during that, she was a bit shocked."

Over on Twitter, people reacted to the moment.

While a third responded: "Apparently it was 'sh*t' as she was getting called up to the stage."

Meanwhile, others were left feeling emotional as they watched the reunion - which also saw other members of the woman's family unmask themselves on stage.

"Awwwwwww im all emotional #SaturdayNightTakeaway," a third agreed.

Elsewhere on the show, Strictly star Craig Revel Horwood took part in the I'm a Celebrity.. Get Out Of Me Ear challenge.

The Geordie duo control what celebs can say and do via an unseen earpiece.

And the Strictly judge demanded attention in his eye-catching red, white and blue sequin bomber jacket - as he was directed to cause minor mishaps around a stately home with an unsuspecting accomplice.

Craig could be seen sauntering around a room perusing the antiques before he picks up a vase.

Ant, from his hidden hideaway tells him: "Now try and put it back but drop it."

The footage then shows Craig duly dropping the vase and a series of audio bleeps as it smashes on the floor.

The spoof continues as Craig, covers his tracks by blaming Dale for the mishap as Ant tells him: "Dale dropped it, if you can let us know how much this is and Dale will pay."

The camera then shows Dale rolling his eyes as he holds back his frustration.
