Britain's Got Talent host Ant McPartlin slipped on stage during the first live semi-final on Monday night.
The incident happened as Ant and Dec were introducing the show's judges, Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli.
As Ant ran onto the stage, he slipped and fell to the ground. The judges and audience burst out laughing, and Ant quickly got back to his feet.

The slip-up didn't seem to dampen Ant's spirits, and he and Dec went on to host the show as usual.
