They are such good friends, and have achieved such popularity as a duo that they are hardly ever seen apart on screen. This leads to them receiving joint nominations for awards for example in 2002, at the relatively young age of 27, they received a joint Special Recognition Award at the National Television Awards. It is a running joke that many people do not know which of them is Ant, and which Dec. In fact, a 2004 Daily Mirror poll found that 70% of viewers could not tell them apart [1]. As a result, photographs of the duo are now almost always taken with Ant on the left and Dec on the right.
