Ant’s absence followed a drink-driving charge earlier this month. The futue of the show hung in the balance, before it was decided that the final two shows would go ahead, including the upcoming finale in Orlando, Florida.

Ant’s absence wasn’t explicitly mentioned by Dce during the show, but he did say that he had “twice the amount of work to do”.

He also joked about the insane press coverage surrounding the pair:

People thought he did a great job, given the circumstances.
