Saturday Night Takeaway's Ant and Dec might need to watch out, as the Pritchard brothers are angling to be the next dynamic presenting duo.
Ex-Strictly Come Dancing professional, AJ Pritchard, has revealed he and his brother, Curtis, want to emulate the careers of the presenting legends.
AJ told The Sun: "We would love to be that presenting duo, like them [Ant & Dec]. We want to bring our brand – that all-singing, all-dancing Saturday night style of family entertainment, a bit like Bruce Forsyth."

AJ announced he was quitting the BBC One series after four years to concentrate on career opportunities with former Love Island contestant, Curtis, saying it was "the right time" to leave.
He revealed that being on Strictly took up so much time he didn't have any time to take up many other jobs outside of the show, which was sometimes upsetting for him.
"I want to have my own brand and there were things I couldn't do because of the Strictly brand and the time involved, he said.

"I did have to turn down things in the past, which I was upset about sometimes, but I understood I was part of Strictly Come Dancing. Now I am going to pursue things I didn't have the time for. It's the right move."
He said he felt like a "life coach" as well as a dancer as he would help with his partners' stress and nerves so it sometimes took a bit of a toll on him.
"But I don't regret joining one bit, as I'm really grateful for the experience and the platform it's given me."
Strictly Come Dancing will return for an all-new series later this year on BBC One.
