Little Ant and Dec look nothing like this now as original 'mini me' duo are all grown up

Real life BFFs James Pallister and Dylan McKenna appeared with Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly on Saturday Night Takeaway

Little Ant and Dec aren't so little anymore.

The 'mini me' duo from Saturday Night Takeaway are all grown up - and look completely different.

James Pallister and Dylan McKenna appeared as the pint-sized Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly lookalikes on the ITV variety game show until 2013, when they were replaced.

It made a lot of sense, really, given that the two pals were nearing their 20s - but we still miss them.

Now, the pair are all grown up and moving on from their lives as the copycat double act.

Not surprisingly, they look rather different now - still keeping their cheeky grins but ditching the Ant & Dec lookalike hairstyles for more original cuts.

Neither of the duo has strayed from the North East, while according to Facebook James has been working as a vehicle technician for BMW.

The show would see them interview celebrity guests in an innocent - but very cheeky - way, before reporting back to their older co-stars.

In 2013, the pair were replaced by Neil Overend and Haydn Reid.
