Ant and Dec have teased a first in the upcoming season of Saturday Night Takeaway, as the series gets a new twist on 'Get Out of Me Ear'.

The ITV show is due to return this weekend for its last outing before it takes an extended break, and before the duo bows out, the series will air a never-done-before segment.

Yep, the tables are set to be turned on the hosts in 'Revenge Get Out of Me Ear' as Ant and Dec get told by celebrities what to do over earpieces instead of the other way round.

Stars who they've pranked in previous seasons will be taking part, with the two unaware beforehand who will be calling the shots.

"Normally when you're trying to get celebrities for things like this it's hard to pin them down because of busy diaries but we've been told that everyone who they asked immediately said yes and made themself available," Ant said at a Q&A (via Radio Times).

"We're very nervous about this."

The series will also be airing the traditional 'Get Out of Me Ear', with Lorraine Kelly set to take part.

"I thought we got stopped a lot when we were out shopping but my goodness, everybody wants to stop and talk to Lorraine Kelly!" Dec teased of the segment.

The season's first episode is set to feature Stephen Merchant as Guest Announcer, with the introduction of a new little Ant and Dec as well as an 'Undercover' with Simon Cowell.

Last year, Ant told Digital Spy and other media about plans for the season, teasing: "We're gonna bring old things back, we've got brand-new stuff, we've got lots of things planned and we're gonna have a lot of fun doing it.

"We love it. It's gonna be sad, but we're gonna have fun until we get to the final episode."

Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway will return on Saturday, February 24 at 7pm on ITV1, STV and ITVX.
