Fans loved it – although they did all express one fear for Stephen, and the Saturday Night Takeaway audience.

You see, Stephen didn’t just walk onto the stage to present the segment.

Oh no.

He arrived from on high, sitting on a chair dangling perilously above the audience.

How did fans react to Stephen Mulhern’s entrance?

They absolutely loved his outfit – but they did express fears for the audience members sitting directly below his chair.

“Gosh Stephen hanging on that chair,” posted one.

Why is Stephen Mulhern hanging above the audience with Ant & Dec sitting comfortably on the stage?” another commented.

“Can’t say I’d be too happy if I were sat directly below Stephen Mulhern and that chair,” said another.

Imagine being killed by Stephen Mulhern dressed as Donald Trump if the chair fell!” said another.

Can you imagine if Stephen falls? That wouldn’t end well for him or some of the audience,” said a third.

However, others said they’ve have liked to have seen Stephen up there for the entire show.

“Please can they just leave Stephen hanging up there for the rest of the show,” they said, adding the crying with laughter emoji.
