TikTok has enlisted two stalwarts of British entertainment to promote its rising role in the U.K.’s culture. 

The platform’s new campaign, “Entertainment. Now on TikTok,” stars the popular British TV presenting duo Ant and Dec (Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly), who present shows including Britain’s Got Talent and I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here. 

Ant and Dec are British TV royalty, but this time they lend their talents to TikTok. The ad, created by Mother London, sees the duo take viewers through the history of entertainment in one minute flat.
