Toni Collette SWEARS during Saturday Night Takeaway … forcing the Ant and Dec to apologise

Toni Collette shocked viewers of Saturday Night Takeaway this week as she accidentally swore while appearing on the live episode.

The Australian actress, 50, was on the weekly show as a guest host, but got flustered during her chaotic first segment as she accidentally let the profanity slip.

Hosts Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly were left slightly red-faced too after the moment as they had to issue an apology to viewers for the language.

But appearing to see the funny side, a wave of fans took to social media to jest that the slip-up was ‘hilarious’. 

‘Tee hee hee @tonicollette just swore on Saturday Night Takeaway and it has made my day,’ wrote one amused viewer.

Toni made the appearance on the show as she joined the Geordie presenting duo as a guest host for the evening. 

But the slip-up occured less than 15 minutes into the episode as Toni was given the challenge of taking on a charades game for her first segment.

Trying to guess what movie different families on the screen were acting out, the actress said the word ‘s*it’ while getting flustered.

While Ant and Dec didn’t bring up the mistake until later on, viewers were quick to take to social media to address the moment as it happened.

Most appeared to have been given the giggles, as one penned: ‘I bloody love Toni Collette, especially now she said “s*it” on live telle’.

‘Toni Collette saying “s*it” on #SNT has made my entire year,’proclaimed another fan. 

As a third added: ‘OMG Toni Collette is so chaotic’.

Shortly after the segment and an ad break, Ant and Dec apologised to viewers as they said into the camera: ‘Apologies if you heard any of that language before the break’.

While the presenters attempted to make light of it later on while warning other guests not to swear on the family show.

‘Welcome to the show, don’t swear. We’ve already had one tonight, we are not allowed another one,’ joked the duo.

It appeared that slips of the tongue was a common theme throughout the show, as Ant and Dec also made their own error while stumbling on their words – acidentally saying ‘white’ instead of ‘right’.

But Toni’s accident wasn’t the only thing that got fans talking, as many also took to social media to share their love for the actress – noting that she looks ‘amazing’.

‘Cannot believe that Saturday Night Takeaway have managed to book the legend that is Toni Collette,’ wrote one viewer.

While another said: ‘Toni Colette is so stunning’.
