The Geordie duo are once again hosting this years show.

The long-time presenters have been presenting the show since series one.

Back in 2018, Declan Donnelly hosted the show solo after Ant McPartlin stepped down from TV commitments for the "foreseeable future" while he checked back into rehab following his well-documented drink driving incident.

Ant was present for some of the audition shows filmed in January and February of that year before his arrest on March 18, 2018 for crashing his Mini while under the influence.

But during the live semi-finals Dec presented the show alone.
