With a little help from the M.O.O.B.S.
It wasn't long after Ant & Dec had been awarded their OBEs that they were responsible for letting the Crown Jewels go missing in their new, ongoing Saturday Night Takeaway skit.
And now that King – or Queen – Mask Face has taken the jewels for their own, it's down to Ant & Dec to stop that evil genius to save the nation.
But not without a little help from Michael Sheen, OBE, and the Munitions Ordinance Operations Backup Squad – or M.O.O.B.S – first.
Yes, there's no getting away from those gleeful puns.
Michael kicks off the new clip by introducing the unit and guessing that Ant & Dec are no stranger to "MOOBS" – to which Ant replies that they try to work out but they're "dead busy" – but he soon adopts a Bond Q-like role by supplying the boys with the gadgets they'll need to take down Mask Face.
The first gadget Michael shows off is his new phone, "a global communication device with in-built tracking system and state-of-the-art thumbprint recognition software", with unlimited calls and texts.
But then they get to the nitty-gritty, and Ant is given an oddly specific "death ray laser jamming system" (remember that, it'll be useful in episode four) and a pair "tiny insignificant knobs" that are actually cloaking devices.
"Finally, we'll get a taste of what it's like to be Stephen Mulhern," Ant jokes.
And then comes Dec's gadgets: a specially heeled pair of shoes and a large packet of chewing gum.
"Let me guess," Dec tries. "The heel contains a poison blade and the chewing gum is actually packed with explosives?!"
"No, we've given you these because you're short and your breath stinks," Michael shoots back.
Oh, well in that case...
Watch how it all plays out when 'The Missing Crown Jewels' continues on Saturday night's (March 11) Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway, which airs on ITV.
