They soon moved onto presenting children's TV on the Creator/{{BBC}}; their first show was a SketchComedy called ''The Ant & Dec Show''. After the Creator/{{BBC}} felt they had run their course and released them from their contracts, they switched to Creator/Channel4 for an evening show aimed at adults entitled ''Ant and Dec Unzipped''. It didn't last long but Creator/{{ITV}} moved in and snapped them up, placing them as the presenters of SaturdayMorningKidsShow ''SM:tv Live'' (and sister show ''CD:UK''). Blessed with brilliant writers and allowed to let their natural charisma and {{improv}} skills shine, Ant & Dec's popularity shot upwards and soon got them mainstream gigs like presenting ''Series/PopIdol'' and ''Series/ImACelebrityGetMeOutOfHere''.

At this point they felt like they had outgrown SM:tv, so they left the world of children's television to crack the mainstream, hosting a UsefulNotes/PrimeTime Saturday night VarietyShow on Creator/{{ITV}} called ''Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway'', which remains their "trademark" show. Since then they've only increased their popularity, winning several awards and hosting many more UsefulNotes/PrimeTime shows.

Originally PJ and Duncan in ''Byker Grove'' ([[{{Narm}} "PJ, Noooooooooooo!"]]), they moved onto music after their FakeBand on ''Byker Grove'' became {{Defictionalized}}. As pop duo "PJ & Duncan" (and later releasing further music under their actual names), they never really hit it big (however in 2013, a ThrowItIn performance of "Let's Get Ready to Rhumble" on ''Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway'' gave them their first and only Number 1 hit in the singles charts [[RevivalByCommercialization 19 years after the song was originally released]]).
