So I've just been watching this years NTAs
Once again, my votes did not prevail...however I'm still happy with the results.
WINNER
MY NOMINATION (if different from winner)
Challenge Show:
I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here
The Apprentice
Masterchef
Love Island
The Great British Bakeoff
As my vote, I'm delighted this show won, such a great series in 2016 and so deserving of the win. A shame for the Last BBC Bakeoff, but should have definitely won over the others.
Comedy
The Big Bang Theory
Orange Is The New Black
Benidorm
Mrs. Brown's Boys
Other than OITNB, I'm a fan of all of these, was a tough call between Mrs. Brown and Benidorm when voting, but I felt like I enjoy Benidorm more, but I am delighted with Mrs. Brown taking it home.
Drama
Game Of Thrones
Cold Feet
Casualty
Happy Valley
The Night Manager
A huge shock for me as I knew there was tough competition in this category, As the only one I'd seen, Cold Feet was the only fair vote for me. Shocked that GoT didn't win despite not being a personal fan, and even more shocked that Casualty won it, being what I would say was the underdog.
Period Drama
Stranger Things
Victoria
Poldark
Peaky Blinders
Call The Midwife
Again, for a fan of this genre, a tough option, fortunately I am not and the only one I've seen any of was Stranger Things. Heard great things about Victoria and Poldark but at the end of the day, the voting public love a classic, and Call The Midwife seems to have been around for ages with an enormous fan base, well deserved for them.
Talent Show
The X Factor
Britains Got Talent
Strictly Come Dancing
Loved them all this year so didn't really mind the winner, Obviously would have preferred my vote to win, but Ed Balls dancing in sequins is hard to beat, and it was a fitting award for the end of Len Goodman's Strictly Judging career.
Factual Entertainment
DIY SOS
Gogglebox
Paul O'Grady: For The Love Of Dogs
Making A Murderer
Tattoo Fixers
Huge Gogglebox fan so did not mind a bit that they won. Such a shame for Tattoo Fixers as I also love them too. Paul O'Gtady is a legend so he missed out big time and I met Nick Knowles in 2016 so DIY SOS missing out hurt fot that reason. Overall, pleased with the result and delighted that Steven and Chris collected the award, but would have loved it to be Tattoo Fixers.
Live Magazine Show
This Morning
BBC Breakfast
Loose Women
Sunday Brunch
The One Show
Couldn't be happier for This Morning, by far the best of the nominees and so deserving of the win. Love Phil and Holly (and Eamonn) and so another reason why I voted for them and why I'm so glad they won.
Drama Performance
Jenna Coleman (Victoria)
Sarah Lancashire (Happy Valley)
Tom Hiddleston (The Night Manager)
Cillian Murphy (Peaky Blinders)
Not seen any of these shows but voted purely because I know that Sarah is an amazing actress. Was stunned to discover that Tom had done some TV stuff, but not enough for it to make me vote him, it didn't seem right. Loved Jenna in Doctor Who but felt like I had to go with Sarah, and it was a good choice.
Entertainment Programme
The Last Leg
The Graham Norton Show
Saturday Night Takeaway
Celebrity Juice
Absolutely love all of these programmes so did not care who won, absolutely knew that SNT would win but thought I'd vote for something else anyway, and of them all, The Last Leg was probably the one that I enjoy watching most.
Newcomer
Faye Brookes (Coronation Street)
Lloyd Everitt (Casualty)
Duncan Jones (Hollyoaks)
Tilly Keeper (Eastenders)
As an Eastenders fan, it would be wrong for me to not vote for Tilly, but my decision was helped by the fact that she's really good. I'm sure Faye did a fantastic job in Corrie to give her the overall win, but I'm a tad gutted on this one as Tilly has done so well this year with the huge Peggy and Phil Mitchell storylines and the more recent Ronnie and Roxy storyline.
Serial Drama Performance
Jack P. Sheppard (Coronation Street)
Danny Miller (Emmerdale)
Lacey Turner (Eastenders)
Natalie J. Robb (Emmerdale)
Rare for me to be happy with the shortlist nominees in this category and despite being a die hard Enders fan, I still know how good the other three are, all of them deserved the win here, but I'm so glad that Lacey got it. It's been great to see her back on the square and winning awards again.
TV Judge
Mary Berry (GBBO)
David Walliams (BGT)
Len Goodman (Strictly)
Nicole Scherzinger (X Factor)
Simon Cowell (X Factor, BGT)
Again love them all so would have been happy whoever won it. Would have been good to see David win it again as it was so funny last time. As a legend in TV Judging, it would have been nice to see Simon win it. Nicole is hilarious so really would have deserved it and it would have been lovely for Len to win it for his last series of Strictly however my vote and the award went to Mary, despite this being my first ever watch of GBBO, I loved it, and I've always loved her and considering the end of GBBO (on BBC) it was nice for her to get it this last time.
Serial Drama
Coronation Street
Eastenders
Hollyoaks
Emmerdale
Again, Eastenders had to be my vote for the same reasons and I'm gutted they didn't take it home but I'm so proud of Emmerdale and after winning best Soap at the Soap awards last year (for the first time ever) this was the next big step. The storylines they've tackled recently are incredible so if I was a more religious watcher they may well have actually got my vote. John Middleton who plays Ashley was snubbed for Serial Drama Performance as he has been amazing recently.
Daytime
The Jeremy Kyle Show
The Chase
Pointless
Come Dine With Me
Another category where I love them all and would have been happy no matter what (maybe a bit gutted if CDWM won) but The Chase is such a well made programme, with a great host in Bradley Walsh and the Chasers are so much fun so it is a deserving winner.
TV Presenter
Mel & Sue
Ant & Dec
Gary Lineker
James Corden
Rylan Clarke-Neal
Once again, it's a given that Ant & Dec will win this so I decided to give someone else a chance. As a fanboy of James Corden I couldn't help but vote for him despite knowing he had no chance. Not only are they obvious winners, but this year particularly the competition was shocking so it was in the bag but I'm delighted that they've won for a 15th year in a row...You never know, I could be the one to break their streak, but I do love them.
Special Recognition
GRAHAM NORTON
This one isn't voted for by the public, but I'm so glad that Graham won it because I absolutely love him. Billy Connolly, David Tennant and Ant & Dec(was actually landmark award that year as they'd already won SR) are the previous 3 winners of this award and Graham fits in that category so very well. I absolutely love watching him on the Graham Norton Show and Eurovision and on Let It Shine recently and so he was so deserving of the award. The video package was also outstanding.
and that's it, not a clean sweep for my votes but mostly happy for each result regardless.
Until Next Time,
Stay Happy,
Watch TV,
And Goodbye.
