Those cheeky Geordie boys, Ant and Dec, are rumored to be taking
another crack at doing some proper comedy. Obviously tired of unjustly winning
comedy awards for being light entertainers and not being dissuaded by the
absolute panning they received for their remake of The Likely Lads in
2002 they are currently having meetings with Granada about making their own
sitcom.
It will suposedly feature Ant turning his life around when he quits his job
and then moves in with life-long buddy, Dec, who has just split up with his
girlfriend. With hilarious consequences, no doubt.
And art continues to immitate life that bit further as the script is due to
be partially autobiographical and include many scrapes and japes based on the
boys real life antics.
A spokesperson for the duo said, "Ant and Dec had an initial meeting with
Granada. However this is just one of several they have had with production
companies and nothing is confirmed."
So there is still hope.
