Dermot O’Leary hit by NTAs backlash
Dermot and Sir Trevor McDonald were tasked with handing out the trophy for the Returning Drama award.
After reading out the list of nominees, which included Call the Midwife, Gangs Of London, Heartstopper, Slow Horses and Vera, 86-year-old Sir Trevor seemed to stumble as he prepared to announce the winner.
At this, Dermot appeared frustrated, pulling faces at the crowd and then gesturing for him to hurry up.

Many viewers took to social media to call Dermot out on his behaviour.
‘Dermot is rude!’
One person tweeted: “Why is Dermot being a [bleep]head towards SIR Trev? #ntas”
Somebody else agreed: “Dermot kinda showed his true colours there looking [bleep]ed at Trevor McDonald for not opening an envelope.”
A third person said: “Dermot is rude wtf was that?”
Another viewer also shared their concern, tweeting: “Is Trevor McDonald okay? Dermot’s face”
“Bless Trevor McDonald – he seemed a little bit lost when he had to reveal the winner.” Someone else sympathised.
In the end, it was Call the Midwife that took the crown, earning its third National Television Award to date.
This Morning victorious at NTAs
Later on in the evening, Dermot celebrated with his This Morning colleagues, as they happily reclaimed the NTAs Daytime award.
The ITV programme had won the award for 13 years in a row until 2023, when, embroiled by scandal, its run was broken by The Repair Shop.
