ANT and Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway fans were in tears tonight after the lads built a HOUSE for a family who lost their baby.
The Geordie duo returned with their hit show after a two year absence and went all out within minutes as they gave one couple the surprise of a lifetime.
Petra and Simon were sat in the audience when Ant and Dec revealed they were giving away a house, before showing their three children sitting on the sofa in the new digs up in Newcastle.
Bringing the shocked couple onto the stage, the pair revealed they knew all about them, how they had lost their daughter Darcey and how Petra ran a charity which had supported over 2000 bereaved children and their families ever since.
Meanwhile Simon was working six days a week as a delivery driver to earn enough money for the family, and that the couple had never been able to afford their own home.
An emotional Ant told the tearful pair: “That brand new house, that house now belongs to you and here are the keys.
“We couldn’t find a more deserving family than you.”
Viewers were in tears at the huge gesture, with one writing on Twitter: “In floods of tears at #SaturdayNightTakeaway.”
Another tweeted: “If #saturdaynighttakeaway made tissues. Love @antanddec Melts your heart what they have done for that family. #newhome #BeKind.”
A third added: “16 minutes in and I’m fully ugly crying, my heart Loudly crying face #SaturdayNightTakeaway.”
The home is also fully furnished, with a dinosaur room for the couple’s son and a princess bedroom for their two daughters.
There is also a cosy living room, stylish kitchen and a good sized garden.
Another viewer tweeted: “Omg that was so lovely of them. Giving the couple a home for all their work they have done for Daisys dream. This is why I love this show. Always doing something special for truly sensational people xx.”
A fellow fan wrote: “15 mins in and im sobbing like a baby. @antanddec you beautiful humans. #saturdaynighttakeaway.”
