National Television Awards longlist revealed including new Expert category
The contenders for this year's National Television Awards have been unveiled, and a brand-new Expert category has been launched.
TV's go-to-specialists, including the likes of Sir David Attenborough, Steven Bartlett, Dame Prue Leith, Kaleb Cooper, Jay Blades, Rudy Reyes, and Wim Hof, are celebrated in the new category, which will honour personalities who offer knowledge and inspiration in their chosen fields.
This year's NTAs will take place on September 15th at London's OVO Arena Wembley, hosted by 'The Masked Singer' presenter Joel Dommett.
There are more streamers than ever before in this year's NTAs longlist, including the likes of 'Clarkson's Farm' - Jeremy Clarkson's Amazon Prime Video documentary about life on his Diddly Squat Farm - 'Bridgerton', 'Heartstopper', and 'Slow Horses', which features in the New Drama category.
The Gary Oldman-led show is up against the likes of 'Screw', 'Pam Tommy', 'The Dropout', 'The Ipcress File', 'The Larkins', and 'Trigger Point', among many others who have a chance of making the shortlist.
Other categories include Talent Show Judge and Talent Show, which features the likes of 'Britain's Got Talent', 'Dancing on Ice', 'Strictly Come Dancing', and Joel's 'The Masked Dancer' and 'The Masked Singer'.
What's more, 'Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway', 'Freeze the Fear with Wim Hof', 'Have I Got News for You', and 'I Can See Your Voice' will be hopeful of making the eventual shortlist for The Bruce Forsyth Entertainment Award.
The other longlist categories are Authored Documentary, Returning Drama, Factual Entertainment, Drama Performance, TV Presenter, Serial Drama, Serial Drama Performance, Quiz Game Show, Rising Star, Daytime, and Comedy.
