Remember the adorable mini-mes, Little Ant and Dec, from Saturday Night Takeaway? The cheeky Geordie duo were one of the most loved features of the hit ITV series. Now, as the show prepares for its final return later this month, ITV is bringing back the hilarious characters.
Having previously been on the lookout for two "cheeky little chappies" to fill the roles back in 2023, the broadcaster confirmed Little Ant and Dec would make a triumphant return to the fun-packed series, which has been confirmed as its last. But what ever happened to the original Little Ant and Dec, the pint-sized lookalikes of Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly, who first appeared on the show in 2003? OK! takes a look at their lives now...

In fact, the lads, who started on the show when they were just nine – and had the chance to interview big names like Tony Blair, Will Smith, Katie Price, David Beckham and Diana Ross – are now in their thirties. They still live in the north-east of England – James is now a vehicle technician for BMW, while Dylan runs his own nutrition business to help people slim down.
The lads left the show when they grew out of their roles, but they've been spotted in the Saturday Night Takeaway crowd since then. In 2021, Dylan and James caught up with Ant and Dec and took a photo that showed how much they'd changed.
