Wednesday night was a dazzling affair as stars flocked to one of British television’s most prestigious events, the National Television Awards 2024.
The excitement was palpable at London’s O2 Arena as celebrities like Tasha Ghouri and Vicky Pattison celebrated well into the early hours.
Glitz and Glamour on the Red Carpet
Tasha Ghouri, the Love Island star who’s gearing up for her Strictly Come Dancing debut, was spotted in high spirits.
She was seen giving a thumbs-up to the cameras as she left the event with Jake Quickenden and friends.
Tasha turned heads in a shimmering silver dress that showcased her legs, adding a touch of Strictly sparkle to her ensemble.
Vicky Pattison, who made her first public appearance as a married woman with husband Ercan Ramadan, seemed ready for bed after a night of festivities.
The reality star was seen playfully dancing around with Ercan before slipping into a taxi, looking content as she rested her head on his shoulder while he tenderly kissed her.
Louise Thompson was the picture of elegance in a glamorous black gown, almost taking a tumble as she left arm in arm with Ryan Libbey.
Her outfit was completed with a matching black handbag adorned with a large bow.
Pregnant Charlotte Dawson stole the spotlight in a stunning white gown reminiscent of a bridal dress.
The 31-year-old reality star, who recently announced she’s expecting her third child, looked radiant in her low-cut, ruffled outfit with a tutu-style skirt.
Helen Flanagan, though visibly exhausted, looked striking in a burgundy fitted dress.
The Celebs Go Dating star, who’s found new love after her split from Scott Sinclair, completed her look with sparkly silver heels.
Highlights and Winners of the Night
The big winners of the night included Ant and Dec, who claimed the Best Presenter award for a record 23rd time.
They led the winners’ list at the NTAs, while “Mr Bates Vs The Post Office” emerged as the evening’s big champion with three awards.
Toby Jones took home the Serial Drama Performance award for his role in the series, and the show’s impact on highlighting the Horizon IT scandal earned it the Impact Award.
Despite controversies, Strictly Come Dancing took home the Talent Show prize, proving that the public still supports the BBC show.
Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman, along with the show’s professional dancers and creative team, celebrated the win on stage.
In a surprising twist, This Morning missed out on the Daytime award to The Chase, following a challenging year marked by Holly Willoughby’s departure and changes in the show’s lineup.
Meanwhile, I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! won the Bruce Forsyth Entertainment Award for the fifth time.
