Presenters Ant and Dec issued an apology over a promotional video for their podcast after facing backlash for potentially insensitive imagery that may be triggering to people who struggle with their mental health. The controversial opening shot showed a pair of feet dangling above the ground, which netizens characterised as evoking 'suicide imagery'.
The duo released a statement on Saturday apologising for the controversial promo video for their podcast, 'Hangin' Out with Ant and Dec', which was set to launch this month. Following their apology, they deleted the controversial video, which was shared on both Instagram and X. The opening shot would later show the pair pegged to a clothesline.
