Joel Dommett reveals which NTAs 2022 nominees he's rooting for
The NTAs host will be returning to the awards ceremony for a second time.
The biggest names in TV will be descending on Wembley's OVO Arena this week for the National Television Awards – and returning host Joel Dommett has revealed which nominees he hopes will emerge as winners this year.
In an exclusive interview with RadioTimes.com, the presenter said that he would like to see his Masked Singer co-star Mo Gilligan win the award for Talent Show Judge.
"I hope Mo wins for the best talent judge. I think that's a good one," he said. "It'd be really exciting for him to win, cause I just think he's such a talented guy and so funny and charismatic."
He went on to say that he's also rooting for a few shows within the Bruce Forsyth Entertainment Award category.
"I'd love to see I'm a Celebrity win. I think that's always a great show because I've been a part of it and I owe a huge amount of it.
"But also in that same category, I love that Taskmaster is there. That's really cool that it's nominated and I think it's such a good show," he added. "[It's] so funny and it has given a huge platform to so many great comedians.
"I think that's a really good category with I'm a Celeb, [Ant & Dec's Saturday Night] Takeaway, and I think Taskmaster and [The] Graham Norton Show."
