An award-winning Ayrshire chip shop welcomed Ant & Dec TV crews last night.
The Plaice to Be in Kilmarnock was featured live on the duo's prime-time Saturday Night Takeaway show.
In the small skit, TV presenter Andi Peters was outside the Stoneyhill Avenue chippy, which was named as one of the UK's best, to promote a competition.
And the takeaway's owner, Jo Goudie, even played a blinder with a tongue-in-cheek remark about Ant and Dec not being there.
Beamed to millions of viewers around the UK, the ITV flagship weekend show attracted a healthy number of locals for the spot.
Guest announcer Alan Partridge, played by Steve Coogan, interrupted the Geordie duo to say that a few tickets were still available for his live show.
The pair then cut to Andi who had the usual fun with the takeaway's pun name.
Dec said: "King of competitions Andi Peters has been visiting the best named takeaways across the country..."
Andi said: "Let me tell you where I am; I'm in the place to be — no I actually am at the Plaice to Be in Kilmarnock in Scotland."
Heading to the takeaway hatch, Andi said hello to Jo before she quipped: "Awch I thought Ant and Dec were coming."
To which Andi responded: "Aw I hate it when people say that!"
Locals surrounded the chippy waving flags and cheering while Andi promoted the competition and showed off a sparkling new Fiat 500 motor.
And the chip shop halted business at 6.30pm to allow crews to set up for filming last night.
But the takeaway opened an hour and a half earlier to allow customers to still get their chippy on Saturday.
