Davina McCall celebrates her NTAs win with Hannah Waddingham

No recent celebrity has been a gift to awards shows quite like Hannah Waddingham.

In the past few years, the Ted Lasso star has given us incredible red carpet moments, dazzling performances, wonderful acceptance speeches and even put a photographer in his place after he made a sexist remark at the Oliviers earlier this year.

At Wednesday night’s NTAs, Hannah was on hand to present the Special Recognition prize to Davina McCall, welcoming the former Big Brother host and Masked Singer panellist with a typically wonderful intro.

After Davina’s speech, she and Hannah then shared a fabulous moment backstage, in which the My Mum Your Dad host admitted winning her own NTA is a dream come true.

Hannah then enthused: “It’s so frickin’ deserved, it’s not even funny.”

“I need to go clubbing or something,” Davina then joked, with Hannah sorting out her pal’s hair before they headed into the press room.

And once they got back on the red carpet together, it’s fair to say it looked like they were enjoying themselves.

Mr Bates vs The Post Office was the top winner at this year’s NTAs, picking up three awards in total, while Ant and Dec were named Best Presenters for the 23rd consecutive year.

Emmerdale beat its usual soap rivals to be awarded Best Serial Drama, although it was Coronation Street’s Peter Ash who was singled out for giving the best performance of the last year.

Meanwhile The Traitors was named Best Reality Competition, I’m A Celebrity scooped the Bruce Forsyth Entertainment Award and Strictly Come Dancing picked up Best Talent Show.
