National Television Awards

Ratings are nothing more then a rough guess,With us all having to go digital soon i don't know why all the new boxes don't have barb boxes

Back to the actual show rather than a one man rant against ITV,

I wonder if they will have those opening titles that feature a montage of current idents again

Also apparantly Trevor does just one gag during his introduction

Wasn't the Quizmania people there too?

I'm sure that Greggles guy said they were going !

Well so far the show seems to be straddling upmarket and downmarket as per usual

You've got Trevor's big intros and upmarket guests mixing with Big Brother contestants and all the EastEnders supporting chavs on the back row screaming at Ross Kemp and Charlie Clements like maniacs

What a load of bollocks - it is the BBC that hype up their product, not Granada. Now which soap is inexplicably on the cover of most TV mags most weeks?

Then you have a Coronation St actor presenting an award that an Eastender actor manages to scoop

Nothing wrong with that. Anthony Cotton won the award last year which is probabaly why he was asked to present it this year.

I know there isn't, it was just quite ironic especially after he had built up all the support for Coronation Street!

Deal or No Deal didn't put much effort into showing up

I'm sorry, but David Walliams is not deserving of the Special Recognition award.

I don't recall Lenny Henry ever getting one!

Whether its David Walliams or not. Surely some sort of special recognition must be sought for somebody who swam the English Channel beating hours of the time of the person who trained him and raised a million pound for charity.

Anyway, isn't this a new award for this year?

You want to be careful... "That Greggles guy" is a regular contributor to these forums!

Surely the presentation inside the RAH tonight shows that it is still suitable for Eurovision?
