RANGERS legend Paul ‘Gazza’ Gascoigne has offered to step in and help save popular show Saturday Night Takeaway.

Extending a hand out to Declan Donnelly in a joke tweet, Gazza mocked up a picture of himself alongside Dec in front of the show’s logo.

In a now-deleted tweet, he said: “I’m here for you Dec if you need me while Ant gets better.”

Gazza’s fans seemed to be on board with the idea, with one writing: “Gazza you would be amazing! Bring it on Dec and Gaz x.”

The ex-footballer’s message came just a day after TV presenter Ant McPartlin was charged with drink-driving following his arrest on Sunday.

He is expected to appear in court next month.

Glasgow Times:

A statement from the Metropolitan Police said: “A man has been charged following a road traffic collision in Lower Richmond Road, SW14 that occurred on Sunday, 18 March.

“Anthony McPartlin, 42 (18.11.75) of Chiswick has been charged by postal requisition on Wednesday, 21 March with drink driving.

“He will appear at Wimbledon Magistrates’ Court on 4 April.”

The TV star was pictured leaving his rented house in Chiswick with his manager and a driver on Wednesday afternoon.

His TV presenting partner Dec, 42, will host their programme Saturday Night Takeaway without him, ITV confirmed.

An ITV spokesman said on Wednesday: “We can confirm that Saturday Night Takeaway, presented by Declan Donnelly, will return to ITV on March 31, and the series finale will be taking place at Universal Orlando Resort in Florida a week later.”

Donnelly wrote in a statement on the duo’s official Twitter page: “Whilst I never thought I’d be in this position, after much discussion and careful consideration we’ve decided that the remaining two shows of this series of Saturday Night Takeaway will go ahead.”

“We made a promise to take hundreds of deserving winners to Florida to watch the series finale, and we will honour that.

“Everyone at ITV and the Takeaway team feels we owe it to the audience to complete the series.”

An ITV spokesman said on Monday they were “reviewing options” for the remaining two episodes of the series, which will now air as scheduled but without McPartlin.
