A staple of British television for nearly three decades, Ant & Dec<\/a> aren’t making plans to stop presenting any time soon, with the duo renewing their contract with ITV as they approach a major milestone.<\/p>\n

Since their debut on Byker Grove in 1989, the beloved Geordie pair have thrilled viewers, presenting shows such as I’m a Celebrity\u2026 Get Me Out of Here!, Britain’s Got Talent and Saturday Night Takeaway<\/a>. <\/p>\n

This run will continue after it was confirmed that the presenters have signed a new contract with ITV. The contract will take them up to the end of 2028, marking their 30th anniversary with the broadcaster.<\/p>\n

“We are absolutely delighted to be continuing our long standing and creative partnership with our friends at ITV,” said Ant in a statement, with Dec offering his own words following the announcement.<\/p>\n

“We\u2019re so lucky to work on some of the biggest and best TV shows and we\u2019re proud of what we have achieved together with ITV over the years,” he said. “We\u2019re excited for the future and looking forward to making more great entertainment together.”<\/p>\n
