The longlist for the National Television Awards has officially been revealed, with audiences now able to cast their votes for free on the NTA website in a range of different categories, including New Drama, Rising Star, Comedy and Talent Show.
Somewhat awkwardly, Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby have been recognised in the NTA category for Best TV Presenter, with This Morning also up for the Daytime prize. Schofield recently announced he was stepping down from presenting the ITV talk show with “immediate effect” following rumours of a “feud” with Willoughby and the conviction of his brother Timothy for 11 sexual offences involving a child.

The NTA longlist also see’s Dame Deborah James and Paul O’Grady posthumously recognised. Dame Deborah, who set up the Bowelbabe cancer research fund and died last year at the age of 40 after suffering from bowel cancer, was named in the category of Authored Documentary.
Meanwhile, O’Grady’s For The Love Of Dogs was listed in the Factual Entertainment category following the death of the TV presenter and comedian earlier this year.
The awards ceremony will be held at The O2 in London on Tuesday 5 September, and will be hosted by Joel Dommett.
