Ant McPartlin is forced to apologise as Saturday Night Takeaway contestant swears during live singalong

ANT McPartlin was forced to apologise tonight after a Saturday Night Takeaway contestant swore during alive singalong.

The Geordie duo brought Singalong Live back for the first time this series, shocking viewers in their own living rooms by popping up on screen to tell them they were taking part.

But one male contestant got such a shock when they said his name, he mouthed "s**t" to his family sitting next to him.

Ant, 44, immediately apologised, telling the viewers: "Don't swear on live TV. Sorry about that."

Sadly, things went from bad to worse for the contestant, who failed to get the missing word right while singing along to Ronan Keating's song, Life is a Rollercoaster.

Tonight's episode came hours after it was revealed the show's finale in Florida has been cancelled due to coronavirus.

The comedic duo planned to fly 300 fans out to Disney World Orlando on April 4, but the park has since made the decision to shut its doors.

A statement from ITV read: "We will no longer be broadcasting the Saturday Night Takeaway finale from Walt Disney World Resort in Florida.

"Walt Disney World has made the decision to close, beginning on Monday 16 March until the end of the month.

"The wellbeing of all our prize winners, as well as our production team, is always our number one priority.

"All recipients of a ‘Place on the Plane’ prize will have their prizes honoured and flown by Virgin Holidays for a 5-night stay at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida at such later date when it is practical for Virgin Holidays and Walt Disney World Resort to fulfil the prize."

Earlier this week it was revealed that Disney World Orlando is closing for the month following 42 cases of coronavirus reported in Florida.
