TV royalty Ant and Dec’s wax figures have returned to Madame Tussauds Blackpool after a transformation.
Originally unveiled in 2016, the much-loved showbiz stars’ wax figures were whisked away for a comprehensive makeover in September and are now back on display at the Promenade attraction.
This is the first big makeover their wax figures have received since they arrived at the attraction almost a decade ago.
The Geordie duo, known for making households nationwide laugh presenting some of the UK’s biggest TV programmes, sat for the revamp of their wax figures, which have been updated with a current, up-to-date look.
Madame Tussauds Blackpool is home to more than 80 meticulously crafted wax figures, from superheroes to showbiz stars, and sporting heroes to the royal family.
Guests can get up close and personal with these famous faces with plenty of photo opportunities to be had.
Madame Tussauds wax figures typically take a team of around 20 skilled artists three to four months to make and involve more than 200 different measurements being taken, as well as every hair being inserted individually by hand.
Jenn McDonough, General Manager at Merlin Entertainments plc, said: “We are delighted to welcome Ant and Dec’s wax figures back to their Blackpool home!
“As fan favourite figures, their return has been eagerly anticipated by visitors and locals alike, and we are excited for visitors to see their new, updated look!”
