Trisha Goddard blasts ‘undiverse’ Saturday Night Takeaway

Trisha Goddard was shocked to see Ant and Dec in blackface.

The TV duo dressed up in a 2003 sketch for their ‘Saturday Night Takeaway’ show and Trisha has blasted them for being "undiverse".

Speaking to MailOnline, Trisha, 62, said: "Ant and Dec, I remember when I first saw that and it wasn’t that long ago. I was like what? What are you? The fact that you’re doing this…

"Do you genuinely think you can trick people into believing – as it was for a ‘You’ve Been Framed’ type thing – I thought how undiverse.

"All these programs need an executive producer, a commissioning editor; there are a whole load of people it needs to go through.

"Nowhere along the line did someone go… because there was no one there to do that."

Ant and Dec, both 44, recently apologised for past sketches, following the recent Black Lives Matter protests taking place across the world.

They tweeted: "During past episodes of ‘Saturday Night Takeaway’ we impersonated people of colour in the undercover segment of the show.

"We realise that this was wrong and want to say that we are sincerely sorry to everyone that was offended.

"We purposely stopped doing this several years ago and certainly would not make these sketches today.

"We had already taken steps to ensure footage was taken down, and have again recently confirmed with ITV that these segments, and any other historical content that could cause offence, does not appear on either the ITV Hub or the ‘Saturday Night Takeaway’ YouTube Channel."
