Viewers thought the sketch was 'cruel'
Saturday Night Takeaway viewers have blasted a prank in the new series which featured a dad-to-be attending a fake 4D baby scan. Minutes into the opening show of the 2023 series hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly introduced the audience to a couple in a restaurant, who were whisked from their date into the studio much to the husband's surprise.
Viewers flocked to Twitter to complain that the sketch was "in bad taste." @missfre_247016 said: "It feels in very bad taste." @snoopy63432704 asked: "Fake baby scan?? Too far, nothing but cruel." And @geordiegalg wrote: "This isn't sitting comfortably with me for some reason. Feels cruel. Weird thing to make a prank about."
@ErinBell01 said: "I can't watch this fake baby scan, must be the worst thing they've ever done, it's awful." @dawnilow said: "#SaturdayNightTakeaway really distasteful prank with the baby." And @Shirker40 tweeted: "This isn't funny and abit cruel." @mollytpwk_ asked the show's official Twitter: "Surely you know pregnancy isn’t something to be pranked about, very insensitive and very cruel to the poor guy!" And @louisetweddell said: "It’s genuinely disgraceful that you haven’t given a moment of thought to the thousands of people who experience receiving bad news in scans including finding their babies have died. How you thought this was funny is unbelievable.
