A HUSBAND and wife team turned the hosts of I'm A Celebrity into balloon creations for Ant McPartlin's birthday.
After a particular tough year for all businesses, For Every Occasion Balloon Artists - in Rhyl - couldn't believe their luck when they received a call asking if they would make up a special creation for Ant's 45th birthday.
Mike and Sara Harris were given free rein in terms of the design.

Ant was clearly delighted with the inflatables and highlighted them on his Instagram story.
In the video, the Geordie duo pretend to present the popular reality show by waving their creations out in front of them.
"Welcome to I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!" the duo shout.

Speaking to the Journal, Mike said: "When we got the call, we asked if the order was possibly for Ant's birthday and they said they couldn't possibly comment.
"Sara, my wife, is a big fan of Ant.
"They said if we can possibly order some balloons - something a bit special. We had free reign on the creation."
Mike's daughter spied the Instagram story, on @antanddec, on the eve of Ant's birthday - November 18.
"It has been everywhere - on Ok! and on This Morning," Mike laughed.
"The exposure is great. To do any orders is nice at the moment - in what is a really dark time, it is really uplifting.

"It has been a crazy time. We have lost 90 per cent of our business - we usually would do balloons for weddings, Christmas. There is no conventions, no trade shows, no holiday camps... it is hard going.
"This has been great thing. In a particularly dark year, it has been a real uplift - it has done us the world of good and it is a great opportunity
"It took about a day and it was our idea.
"We were allowed to deliver to the site but only to the car park!"
Ant and his longtime presenting partner Declan Donnelly are currently hosting I'm A Celeb which is being filmed at Gwrych Castle in Abergele.
The pair would normally be spending Ant's birthday in Australia.
This is the first year the show has taken place in Wales.
