Voting Opens for the National Television Awards
The NTAs are unique in that the winners are chosen entirely by the viewers. Fans can vote for their favorite shows, actors, presenters, and more online at https://www.nationaltvawards.com/. Voting closes on Friday, May 31st, 2024, so be sure to get your votes in before then! The shortlist will be revealed in August, with the final round of voting taking place then. Winners will be announced at a ceremony broadcast on ITV on September 11th, 2024.
New Dramas Take Center Stage
The New Drama category is always hotly contested, and this year is no exception. Among the nominees are the much-talked-about Netflix series "Baby Reindeer," the historical drama "Mr. Bates vs. The Post Office," and the adaptation of the Robert Thorogood novels "The Marlow Murder Club." Each of these shows has garnered critical acclaim and a devoted fanbase, making it hard to predict the winner.
Familiar Faces Battle for Returning Drama
The Returning Drama category is packed with fan favorites. Long-running shows like "Doctor Who," "Call the Midwife," and "Death in Paradise" go head-to-head with newer hits like "Bridgerton" and "The Crown." It will be interesting to see if established shows can hold off the challenge from these rising stars.
Can Ant & Dec Make it 23 Wins in a Row?
In the TV Presenter category, all eyes are on Ant & Dec. They have won the award for an incredible 22 years straight, and they're nominated again this year. However, they face stiff competition from established presenters like Holly Willoughby and Graham Norton, as well as rising stars like AJ Odudu and Maya Jama.
Drama Performances Galore
The Drama Performance category boasts a wide range of talented actors. From veterans like David Tennant and Imelda Staunton to rising stars like Jessica Gunning and Richard Gadd, there's no shortage of exceptional performances to choose from. Voters will have a tough time deciding who deserves the award.
Experts and Reality Stars Vie for Recognition
