| Publisher Description: Ant and Dec are the hottest double act on television today. With their boyish good looks, cheeky charm, and ease in front of the camera, they have truly endeared themselves to the British public, and their continuing popularity has won them a string of awards. This biography is an intimate, affectionate portrait of the men behind the TV stars. It charts their career from the early days as PJ and Duncan in the hit children's drama Byker Grove, through their pop career to their TV presenting roles on hugely popular shows such as SM: tv Life, Pop Idol, and I'm a Celebrity . . . Get Me Out of Here Not only are they accomplished presenters but, more often than not, their hilarious, off-the-cuff banter steals the show. This insightful look also reveals what Ant and Dec's friendship is like behind the scenes, and uncovers how their formative years shaped them for the startling fame that was to come. The last few years have seem them rocket to primetime stardom and have also brought some major changes in the boys' private lives: Ant married long-term girlfriend Lisa Armstrong in 2006, and Dec had to deal with a sad split from his girlfriend of many years, Claire Buckfield. This is a fun, informative look at the boys who have captured the hearts of a nation. Saturday morning TV's loss has been primetime TV's gain and the pair's genuine wit, infectious sense of fun, and the comradeship has guaranteed them a place in the household name hall of fame. |
