Not funny.


Charlie looks out the window.

Charlie" They say the winds are going to get up on This Morning they were saying it could get to a red warning"

Stephen" I know hopefully it will be okay tomorrow"

Charlie" I hope so"

They both arrived at the studios and were making their way to the door to enter television centre, they passed many runners and people that worked there.

Runner" Hey Stephen, Hey Charlie"

Charlie and Stephen" Hey Rob"

They pass all the studios, GMB, Loose Women, This Morning and Lorraine before reaching the Takeaway studio. They arrive and Ant and Dec sitting on the sofa going over some scripts. Charlie comes up behind her dad making Ant smile. She makes him jump and he relaxes when he realises its his daughter.

Dec" Hey trouble, how are you?"

Charlie" Excited for takeaway"

Dec" Us too, we are just going over some scripts for the show tonight"

Charlie" I'm excited for Ant Vs Dec me and Stephen are ready"

Stephen" Yep, I can't wait to see your faces, I bet you can't wait"

Ant" Yeah we are ecstatic aren't we Dec"

Dec" Yeahhhh"

Charlie chuckles as Ant and her dad were being sarcastic, she comes to sit next to her dad and leans her head on his shoulder. Stephen sits down next to Ant and they both smile.

Stephen" Aren't our Donnelly's cute"

Ant*smiles* I know bloody cheeky as well"

Charlie and Dec look at Ant and Stephen"

Charlie" What us?"

Dec" Never"

Charlie" So are you doing your usual This Morning interview?"

Ant" We are yeah, I think Alison and Dermott are coming over to us"

Charlie" Ooo, I love watching them too on the telly"

Dec" Well come see them if you like we don't mind"

Ant" Not you Stephen though"

Stephen" Yeah, yeah, very funny"

Later on Ant and Dec were just getting ready as Dermott and Alison would be over in a minute.

Charlie and Stephen sat in their dressing room watching her dad and Ant on the telly.

Alison and Dermot come in with a bang like they do, all loud and excited. Dec makes a joke of the spin Dermott used to do on X factor. They then show the Jeremy Clarkson undercover.

Alison" That looks amazing doesn't Derms"

Dermott" It does, it looks hilarious"

Dec" He has been on our hit list for ages, I mean his girlfriend Lisa said yeah, come down to the farm and I'll help, so we were both like alright yeah"

Ant" I mean he has got a temper as we all know"

Dermott" I mean he isn't good with Irish men, so are you always looking like, do you have a team thinking who can we prank next"

Dec" Yeah we have like a hit list of people who we want to prank and we go through them all thinking who can we do next"

Alison" They would never get us would they Derms"

Dermott" Hang on a minute"

Ant" What was that Alison?"

Dermot" I mean I'm feeling slightly insecure now"

Alison" Is there a celebrity that you would really like to get?"

Ant" Well now you say that Alison Hammond"

Alison" Well you will never get me because I am on things like that"

Dec" No seriously we do have a hit list and we can't really say anything because we are still working on them"

Dermott" So there is a flip side to this coin, I mean you must every time you go out to dinner, that someone must be trying to get you, like if you get a funny meal"

Alison" Or if the service is a bit weird"

Dec" Yeah"

Ant" I mean like parking attendants and if some stranger is just standing there, or the smoke you know those smoke machines, it's just weird"

Dermot" So you must live in a constant paranoid state whether someone is going to prank you"

Dec" We do"

Alison" Are you worried your daughter might prank you"

Dec" Well I wouldn't doubt her, she is very cheeky plus she is my daughter so she knows a lot about me"

Ant" Yeah she is definitely Dec's Daughter, both cheeky the both of them"

Dec" Though I know my whole family would be in on it, like not just Charlie but Ali and Ant and Stephen if it was just to prank me, it's stuff like when the massage isn't as good were expecting and you are sitting with your face in like this is a undercover"

Ant" When the thumb just reaches a little too close to your you know what"

This sends Dermott and Alison into giggles which then makes Ant and Dec giggle.

Dec" Hang on a minute I know those hands, it's Alison Hammond"

Alison*loud laughs* That's not a pillow"

Dermot" Hang I didn't realise we were going south of the water here"

Alison" So you are going to have a audience"

Dec" Oh yes, it's going to be great"

Ant" I mean it's makes the world of difference you know what it's like, I mean the show is all on the audience and the surprises we have in store for them, I mean we did love having the video board all last year"

Dec" Yeah we can't wait to have a audience"

Dermot" I mean you give everything to the audience and they give everything back to you"

Dec" They do, it's like a huge party in the studio and to be honest when I came in this morning and saw that we had the audience seating back in, I was like oh my god they are going to be here tomorrow"

Ant" I mean him and Charlie were both standing there like a couple of little kids amazed at Christmas presents"

Alison" So what is coming up I know you have got some new things but have you still got the old things"

Dec" Well we have Polterguys, that's our new drama that starts next week"

Dermott" Is it classified as a drama?"

Alison" I was in it last year and I was so upset that you got to meet Ant and Dec, Dermot, I thought they were going to be there I put it all over my social media and then I got there and you weren't even there I was on blue screen or green screen whatever it is"

Dec" Yeah we very much insisted upon that"

Dermott" So what's the plot this yeah boys?"

Dec" Well we are ghost hunters, and I just say that, leave it there, we have our star guest announcer it's rue paul who has also sorted out the end of the show show for us"

Ant" I mean he has all three winners and he has just sorted it all out for us"

Dermott" I don't think two people are going to photo bomb that at all"

Dec" Well, see usually we get involved in the end of the show show and this time, well maybe we will just sit back watch this time"

Ant*smiles*" Though I have got very good legs"

Alison" Are you any good in heels?"

Ant" I can't walk in heels"

Dec" He has tried"

Ant" I have"

Alison" So what about Celebrity get out of me ear and all that?"

Dermott" Oh I love that"

Dec" We can't really say much but we have so much coming up it's going to be a great series"

Ant" We still talk about your one Dermott"

Alison" Did you do one?"

Dermott*nods* I did yeah and it was just so much fun, I mean my niece I have a twenty year career and it's the only thing she still talks about"

Dec" It was the first time we went out in public to do and we took him to a supermarket"

Dermot" Yeah and they were in my ear saying see that man get in his trolley, I mean you are cheekier than you"

Alison" Who is the cheeky one Ant?"

Dermott" Yeah though they are both equally naughty, I mean he was like see that man go nick something from his trolley, go on and I was thinking please don't make me do this"

Ant" I think I did ask you to pick a baby up once and you were just like I'm not doing that"

Alison" And you have been filming at the o2 haven't you"

Dec" Yeah last year we filmed at a drive through coffee place"

Dermot" Oh that was brilliant"

Alison" I loved that"

Ant" I know that is one of Charlie's favourites, that and the Bradley Walsh prank we did"

Dec" Yeah she does like that specific brand"

Dec" So we can't do that again, so we have been security, like people had to come to security and it was us and we cheesed so many people off"

Ant" I mean so many people hate going through security anyway so when we were getting them to do all these things and people got very angry, they stormed off, swore at us, flipped the bird"

Dec" I mean imagine you have to take your socks off and your shoes off and then your trousers off"

Ant" And we got people to do so many things, like silly things like stick your finger in a pot of hummus and people complied and did it"

Dermott" I mean I like it because it's just the pettiness of life and like these things that people hate so much"

Dec" I mean we had a man who kept storming off but then he would come back after cooling down and he kept doing it but he was like I have to get in to the o2, oh my god it's brilliant"

Alison" And I mean what about the competivness of you two"

Ant" Yes Ant Vs Dec is back unfortunately Stephen Mulhern comes with that item"

Dec" But my daughter also comes with that item so that's good"

Ant" So they will both be back, I mean we leave it up to them, we are doing it tomorrow so we will find out tomorrow what it is"

Dec" They have a different challenge for us every week, all we know is it Ant Vs Dec vs something"

Ant" I mean it's mega chaos with just Stephen and then you put him together with a Donnelly and it's extra madness"

Dermott" What I just love it's just so much fun to watch, I mean everyone gets involved and you do have a rough idea of what's going to happen but when someone makes a mistake"

Ant" I mean it's great when it goes wrong the viewers and audience love it when it goes wrong, because you have someone else there you two might find this, you can laugh with the other person"

Dermott" Well we have only just realised this"

Ant" I mean it's great because you can lean on each other or just laugh at each other"

Alison" Well we are so excited for tomorrow night, what time is it on?"

Ant" Seven o clock"

Dec" ITV"

Alison" Well thank you so much for chatting to us"

Ant" Thanks for coming over"

Alison" I don't want to leave now, shall we stay here"

Ant" Stay here do the rest of the show from here"

Dermott" Why not"

After the interview they went to the break. Charlie then came out along with Stephen.

Dermot" Oh here they are, hello you two"

Charlie" Hello, thought we would come see you after the interview, we have just been sorting out Ant Vs Dec"

Alison" Ooo, you can't tell us anything"

Charlie" Sorry, our lips are sealed"

Alison" Worth a try wasn't it"

Dermot" Look we better go, we got to get back to the studio before the ad break ends"

They both get up and head out of the studio.

Charlie sits down next to her dad.

Dec" So did you two watch the interview"

Charlie" We did, sat in the dressing room and watched it, I can't wait for tomorrow night, its going to be so exciting"

Ant,Dec and Stephen chuckle.
