Others nominated in their category were Graham Norton, Bradley Walsh. and Alison Hammond.
Unfortunately, the I'm A Celeb duo contracted COVID-19 days before the ceremony, so they couldn't be there to collect their award.
As a result, Stephen Mulhern took to the stage to accept it on their behalf.
You’ve got too many! I’ll look after this for a few years… All joking aside, nobody deserves it more! @antanddec https://t.co/XgJzFXkF3l pic.twitter.com/JdYPN3HWPX

He joked, "Listen full respect to the guys, 21 years on the trot – come on."
"But the reality is, this baby is coming home with me."
He then took out a pre-etched plaque of his own name, which he stuck over Ant and Dec’s name on the award.
