Dec seemed shocked by his statement and said: ‘You too? I was wondering how you felt about it…’

The former I’m A Celebrity campmate responded: ‘Of course! Look… especially in my house, right.”

‘I grew up in a music house and as if it’s the biggest night, I always say it’s our Oscars. “I know we have the BAFTAs but it almost seems a bit too elitist in a way, like you know, it’s a bit in a different world,” he added.

He asked the presenters of Britain’s Got Talent if they could give any advice.

Roman begged, “But I guess it’s like the Oscars we have, so I guess… I don’t really know what to do… how to feel… If you have any advice?”

Ant shared some pearls of wisdom before saying the star should just ‘just enjoy it’.

‘Yes, it’s a big animal! So just enjoy it. You know, enjoy it, make the TV show for everyone at home, not for the people in the audience because they won’t listen to a word you say. That’s some advice,” Ant said.

Roman then joked: ‘Nobody’s listening’

Despite being nervous about the evening, Roman admitted he will cause chaos at the event as he spoke on his Capital Radio Breakfast show alongside co-stars Chris Stark and Sian Welby.

Ant and Dec, 49, wished him well and said: ‘Good luck!’ before the host confessed: “Yes, I know I’m terrified…”

Ant confided his assumption, saying: “Everyone eats their dinner or gets drunk” before laughing.

“Okay… So don’t look… Be horrible to them,” Roman said.

It comes after Roman fHe fought back tears as he announced he was quitting his Capital Breakfast show in January.

After ten years of presenting for the channel, the radio host announced that his last show will be on March 28, as he gave an emotional speech.

When talking about how much Capital has meant to him, Roman seemed overcome with emotion as he admitted that this wasn’t a decision he ever expected.

He explained, “I have a little announcement, and it’s really weird to say it out loud. Really strange. If I’m being completely honest, I have no idea how to start this.

“I’m just going to come out and say it. This will be my last kind of six weeks with capital, which is weird to say.

Shaking away his emotions, he continued, “The last eight and a half years of my life have been so incredible to be a part of this machine, right, it’s been the funniest, the saddest, and the most downright wild time to to be part of Capital and the Global family. .

‘When you take on a job of this magnitude, you never think that one day there will come a time when you have to say goodbye. You never think that day will come.

“What I can tell you is that I’m not saying goodbye right now, I’m not leaving the show today and that’s it, but it’s not far away.

‘It will happen and that farewell will come in five to six weeks. It’s not a decision made overnight either, it’s huge, I haven’t found it easy at all.’

Roman lost his best friend and global radio producer Joe Lyons to suicide in August 2020, and the star alluded to the tragedy while referring to both his “best times” and “absolute lowest times.”

“Capital is my family, you as the amazing listeners you have been, you have been with me through my best times and my absolute lowest… Capital and Global have helped change me.

“I was 22 years old when I first joined Capital and it shaped me into the man I am today, that’s all I know. But I know this is the right time to leave and this is the right time to move on.”
