Lenny Rush made a cheeky jibe at Dec Donnelly on Saturday Night Takeaway, leaving Ant McPartlin in hysterics.

The young comedian is hosting tonight’s edition of the ITV show, which comes to an end next week in sad news for Ant and Dec fans. Tonight, Lenny Rush stepped into the hot seat to host the show alongside the presenting duo.

As he welcomed Ant and Dec to the stage, Take That performed their hit track Shine to welcome everyone to the show. They then joined Lenny, where he revealed he had actually met Dec before.

He shared a snap of the pair of them together, with Dec posing next to Lenny in the photo. Making a joke about Dec’s height, he said that Dec was standing up in the snap despite their very differing heights.

Greta Gerwig on Jo Koy's Golden Globes 'Barbie' Joke: “He's Not Wrong”

Greta Gerwig says she got the joke when Jo Koy told the Golden Globes audience on Sunday that Oppenheimer was based on a Pulitzer Prize-winning book but Barbie is about “a plastic doll with big boobies.”

The writer-director addressed the quip he delivered during his first Globes hosting gig while appearing on BBC Radio 4 Today. The joke has been criticized by some for being reductive or sexist, but Gerwig offered host Martha Kearney a different take on Koy’s joke.

“Well, he’s not wrong. She’s the first doll that was mass-produced with breasts, so he was right on,” she said. “And you know, I think that so much of the project of the movie was unlikely because it is about a plastic doll.”
