Who won this year’s Special Recognition?

Every year, the NTAs gives out a Special Recognition award with the recipients ranging from individual people to specific shows - such as Line of Duty in 2021. Last year it was handed out to presenter Davina McCall.

For 2025, the Special Recognition winner is set to be Wallace & Gromit. It comes after the release of the latest movie Vengeance Most Fowl at Christmas 2024.

How to watch The National Television Awards at home?

The NTAs have called ITV/ STV home since its debut 30 years ago and once again will be live on the channels tonight (September 10).

Viewers can tune in on ITV1/ STV, depending on which part of the country they are watching from. It will also be live on ITVX/ STV Player and can be caught on demand, if you are unable to watch it as it happens.

Joel Dommett is on hosting duties, but he will be joined by Sam Thompson and Pete Wicks. The reality star duo will be on the red carpet.

What time will The National Television Awards end?

Coverage is set to start at 8pm this evening, it has been confirmed. The NTAs will follow Emmerdale’s return after a surprise night off - following a brutal cliffhanger ending on Monday night (September 8).

The ceremony is due to run for approximately two and half hours, including adverts. It is expected to finish at around 10.30pm.
