ANT And Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway has been hit with 29 Ofcom complaints over a skit in which humans were infected with an alien virus.
Part five of the Men In Brown sketch saw Paul Hollywood, whose body had been taken over by an alien, reveal that he had the "Universal Collider" and could now infect the whole world. "Now we have the Universal Collider we can open up portal zero-zero and give the whole world the squits," he laughed.
Later, after Amanda Holden was infected, she intoned: "Infect the human scum." But some viewers at home were not impressed, believing it to be insensitive during a time when the entire world is battling the coronavirus pandemic.
