If you have a Ring Doorbell stuck to the front of your home there’s a fun free upgrade you might like to try. These hugely popular products have just been given a celebrity makeover which offers some new ways to reply when someone appears on your drive. The boost is all thanks to Ant and Dec joining forces with Ring to bring new Quick Replies to these security cameras. So, when a neighbour or courier knocks on the door they will be greeted by the Geordie duo rather than your voice.
Viewers of ITV’s Saturday Night Takeaway may already be familiar with the ‘Ring My Bell’ segment which used the video doorbells of audience members to win prizes for people living on the same street.
Speaking about the collaboration, Ant said: “Everyone knows we love a prank, so we loved the idea of Quick Replies and, as you can imagine, had enormous fun recording them.”
And Dec added: “We can’t wait for you to see the surprised reactions of your friends and family when people are greeted by our Quick Replies on your doorstep.”
Here are some of the replies available from today.
ANT: Hi, we’re your hosts Ant and Dec – and you’ve just won tonight’s star prize!
DEC: It’s the chance to meet the person who is about to answer this door!
ANT: Congratulations! Stay right where you are
DEC: Ant and Dec here! And the door is nooooooooow open!
ANT: No, not yet Dec! The people inside are too busy watching telly to come to the door…
DEC: Oh right, well pleeeeeeeease leave a message!
ANT: You can’t help yourself, can you?
ANT: Hi, Ant and Dec here – fortunately, Dec’s so small he can fit inside the doorbell.
DEC: Yes, I’m here! Thanks for stopping by! Someone will be right out.
ANT: Surprise! Ant and Dec here, and you’re LIVE ON THE TELLY! Give us a wave!
DEC: We’re only joking! But you ARE live on this doorbell, so please leave a message!
To get these replies on your doorbell you simply need to activate them via the Ring app. Then when a visitor presses the doorbell, they’ll hear your preferred Quick Reply and they can then leave their own message in return.
“Ant and Dec have always captivated the hearts of the British public, so who better to welcome guests and entertain on doorsteps than this famous TV duo,” Dave Ward, Managing Director, EU & International at Ring explained.
At Ring, we’re always looking for fun, new experiences for our customers and ways to innovate and bring the unexpected to your door.”
