This year’s National Television Awards (NTAs) shortlist has been announced, Ant and Dec being put forward for best TV presenter once again.

The duo may face stiff competition, from Bradley Walsh, Holly Willoughby, and Phillip Schofield. Of course, they have won the past 15 times in a row so could very well take home the award again.

Unlike the majority of awards, the NTAs are purely decided by the public vote, which has now opened. See the full shortlist below.
