Alison Hammond has become Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly’s latest victim.
The Geordie duo returned to our screens on February 25 with a new series of Saturday Night Takeaway.
To kick off the new batch of episodes, the boys played a prank on Alison as part of their Undercover segment.

Ant and Dec tricked Alison into thinking she needed to stay in a “haunted” hotel for work.
However, things didn’t go to plan as the This Morning presenter refused to stay after being greeted by spooky dolls in her room.

The presenting duo said the set-up “nearly went absolutely haywire” when they heard Alison telling her friend she would not go back into the hotel.
Alison was later convinced to return to the hotel, where she can be seen at dinner telling her colleague that she can “feel” how haunted the hotel is.
After a series of spooky events, Alison went to her bedroom and started taking her coat off before Ant and Dec appeared in her mirror.

She was left screaming before the boys entered her room and dived on her as she laid in bed.
Discussing the prank, Alison said she “started stripping off” and Ant joked that that was “why they stayed”.
While Alison was left gobsmacked that Ant and Dec managed to trick her, viewers at home loved the hilarious prank.
Taking to Twitter, one fan penned: “That was brilliant!!! I absolutely love Alison Hammond!!! Very well played Ant and Dec!! Brilliant! #SaturdayNightTakeaway.”
Another added: “Brilliant show as always. The prank they’ve played on Alison Hammond in the haunted hotel was a classic. I literally cried with laughter #SaturdayNightTakeaway.”
Someone else said: “Scaring Alison Hammond, this is one of the best #Undercovers, @antanddec have ever done.”
Earlier in the show, viewers were rubbed up the wrong way as Dec made an “deeply inappropriate” comment.
