After the break, Ant was seen back in the studio, dabbing his cheek with a tissue.
When Dec quizzed Ant on what had happened, he explained he had cut his face while taking Stephen down.
It comes after Stephen pulled out of Saturday Night Takeaway last week after he was struck down with illness.
The broadcaster is said to have told producers last Saturday morning that he was not up for filming that evening as he was feeling under the weather.
While he was absent from the show, the nature of his illness was not revealed.

The last minute change meant hosts Ant and Dechad to rewrite an I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! segment to feature radio presenter Jordan North, 34.
A source close to Stephen told The Sun on Sunday: 'Stephen was due to be on a small section of the show, but sadly he was feeling a bit too poorly to perform.
'When he realised he would be too under the weather to show up he called first thing on Saturday morning to let the team know.
'They were able to rejig the format and make it work without him.'
A representative for Stephen told MailOnline: 'Stephen was due to be involved in one of the sketches in tonight's show but sadly he was unable to take part due to him feeling unwell. He's looking forward to being back for the final next weekend.'
ITV declined to comment.
