Rylan Clark tells fans he's 'near to cracking' as he reveals professional dilemma after Saturday Night Takeaway praise

Rylan Clark has been flooded with messages from fans as he told them he is 'near to cracking' as he reveals his professional dilemma. The BBC Radio 2 host was heaped with praise after he was pranked by Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly on their hit show, Saturday Night Takeaway.

Rylan had viewers in stitches as he had no idea he was being pranked by the Geordie duo as part of their ITV programme's popular Undercover segment. The 35-year-old, who is fronting the BBC's coverage of Eurovision this year, thought he was spending the day filming some content for the song contest which is being held in Liverpool in May.

However, he had actually been brought to a studio to unknowingly be part of a huge stunt that had been arranged with Ant and Dec and their Saturday Night Takeaway team with the help of BBC Eurovision and EBU.
