Oh dear! Ant McPartlin left Declan Donnelly, both 44, speechless during this weekend’s Saturday Night Takeaway, after he destroyed a crew member’s camera by hurling it on the floor

As Ant and Dec made their usual entrance down the studio steps, the presenting duo decided to offer viewers a new glimpse of the show by stealing two large cameras.

After making it onto the set, Ant decided he was ready to ditch the hefty equipment, and shouting: ‘Grab this Alan it’s a bit heavy!’

It didn’t seem that Alan was ready to catch the camera that was then hurled towards him, and it hit the floor with an almighty thud.

Dec and most of the audience gasped in horror, with Ant awkwardly telling his partner to ‘put his down.’

Viewers then saw that the camera, which can cost several thousands pounds, had broken in two and was eventually picked up one of the crew.  

Trying to compose himself, Dec quickly got the show back on track, before asking another member of the team to collect his camera as it was clearly weighing him down. 

It was another eventful evening for the presenting duo, with the latest episode featuring guest announcer Greg James, along with Craig David who featured in a hilarious edition of I’m A Celebrity Get Out Of Me Ear!
