Ant and Dec crack up as woman rips off her wig and swings it around in joy on Saturday Night Takeaway
Ant and Dec were left in hysterics during a giveaway on Saturday Night Takeaway after a woman whipped her wig off and swung it around in joy.
The hosts were in the middle of the Takeaway Giveaway section of the show, when a woman got so overwhelmed with winning that she snatched her own wig off as she screamed at being picked.
Their first winner of the night was Aderemi Adejokun from London, who – it’s safe to say – wasn’t exactly expecting her name to be called out.
As the camera cut to her, she was seen knocking off her wig, before snatching it and swinging it in the air, then hastily popped it back on her head and tried to arrange it in place.
Dec could barely get his words out as he praised her, saying: ‘You’ve raised four daughters on your own, took on a charity that provided clothes and books for children and you’re a mum to everyone. We think you deserve a Takeaway Getaway!’
Viewers were understandably loving seeing the pure joy Aderemi was experiencing, and they took to Twitter to thank her for making their day.
They tweeted: ‘The lady with the wig is the best and funniest thing I’ve seen today! She deserves that holiday for that alone. Love her!’
Others added: ‘Can’t stop rewinding ant and dec with that woman pulling her wig off after winning I’m crying my eyes out’ and ‘The only thing going viral tonight is the lady snatching her own wig’.
Fans wanted to see more of her, adding: ‘Petition for a segment starring the wig lady next week’ and ‘Petition for @ITV to replace @piersmorgan with her weave.’
You never know what can happen on live TV after all…
Saturday Night Takeaway airs on ITV from 7pm on Saturday.
