Saturday Night Takeaway fans question if it's Christmas yet as Michael Bublé joins show

Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway were confused as Michael Bublé appeared on the show tonight.

The Haven't Met You Yet singer appeared on the ITV show tonight with hosts Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly in a very special Big Band End of the Show Show but fans were distracted by his early appearance in March.

Michael regularly appears at Christmas to promote his hugely popular festive album, so fans tuning into the show today were puzzled to find him on TV so early in the year, with it still being nine months until December.

Taking to Twitter, viewers joked about Michael featuring in the programme's very special ending.

"Who’s let Michael Buble out in March? #SaturdayNightTakeaway," one fan penned on Twitter, as a second wrote: "Michael Buble on #SaturdayNightTakeaway. It's March - is he okay?"

A third shared: "Michael Bublè in the spotlight now, surely it’s not Christmas just yet? #SaturdayNightTakeaway," with a fourth writing: "michael bublé? didn’t realise it was christmas #saturdaynighttakeaway."

"Who let @MichaelBuble out the box it’s not #christmas lol #SaturdayNightTakeaway #antanddec @itvtakeaway," a fifth penned as they tuned into the latest edition of Ant and Dec's popular Saturday night show.

Whilst some were surprised, others were thrilled to see Michael back on their TVs.

"Ooo that has made my night, adore michael buble! Great Fun! #SaturdayNightTakeaway #Michaelbuble #antanddec," one wrote, as a second added: "I am officially in love with the Bublè #SaturdayNightTakeaway."

"And my favourite Michael Buble is on. Already a good show #SaturdayNightTakeaway," a third penned online.

Michael has been away from the spotlight for a while as he cared for his poorly son, who has since recovered. He recently recalled how he was told his career would be over i f he took time away to be with his family.

"When I went away and went through our family stuff with our son, I never knew if I was coming back. Then I had different promoters telling me, 'Listen Mike. This might be over for you," he said.

"People forget quick. They do. You step away and they move on to the next thing.'"

He admitted he cried after his first show back, adding: "My first show back, I played Croke Park in Dublin, Ireland and I cried for like two hours afterwards. It was too emotional for me. I was too happy. Noah is great, thank God."
