Cast your vote for your favourite shows of the year – and get tickets for the ceremony.
The National Television Awards return to ITV tonight, with The Masked Dancer's Joel Dommett on hosting duties once again.
While there's so much on offer when it comes to the world of TV, the NTAs has narrowed down the 2022 nominees to a handful of notable titles, from Heartstopper and Bridgerton to Peaky Blinders and Trigger Point.
There's some brand new shows which have received nods from the awards board, including This Is Going to Hurt and Time, but also some unsurprising picks – from Gogglebox to Ant and Dec being nominated for their 21st TV Presenter gong.
Unfortunately, the duo are set to miss this year's awards after testing positive for COVID, with their representative saying that they'll be "postponing work commitments whilst they recover".
The show must go on however, and with so many shows being honoured across this year's various categories, you won't want to miss the 2022 National Television Awards.
