The champagne is ready, the red carpet rolled out and the umbrellas on stand by - it's officially time for the National Television Awards.

Stars from the silver screen will be out in force tonight (Tuesday, January 28), as the annual bash takes place at London's O2 Arena.

After hitting the red carpet, celebs will head into the ceremony to find out who has been victorious this year, and contenders include Ant and Dec (who are going for a record-breaking win) and Phoebe Waller-Bridge.

Waller-Bridge’s Fleabag has received a nod in the comedy category, while drama series Killing Eve is also nominated.
