The National Television Awards (NTA) 2023 nominations have finally been revealed ahead of next month's widely anticipated ceremony.
On September 5, a number of stars from East Lancashire will discover if they have received an NTA for their work in entertainment.
Comedy series Brassic, starring Michelle Keegan and Lee Mack, has been nominated for best comedy.
Bacup acts as the backdrop to the series, as the fictional town of Hawley. Film crews descended on 1832 Barista coffee shop, on St James Street in January, with filming taking place both inside and outside the shop.
As well as his role Brassic, Blackburn comedian Lee also presents The 1% Club, which has been nominated for the best Quiz Game Show.
Accrington actor Dominic Brunt has been shortlisted for his role as Paddy Kirk in Emmerdale as best Serial Drama.
The full nominees for these categories are:
Quiz Game Show
1. Michael McIntyre’s The Wheel
2. Richard Osman’s House Of Games
3. The 1% Club
4. The Chase Celebrity Special
Comedy
1. Brassic
2. Ghosts
3. Ted Lasso
4. Young Sheldon
Serial Drama
1. Coronation Street
2. EastEnders
3. Emmerdale
4. Hollyoaks
This Morning will attempt to retain its title in the daytime category against The Chase, Loose Women and The Repair Shop - the first NTAs since the show's former host Phillip Schofield's dramatic exit from the programme and ITV earlier this year.
Schofield and Holly Willoughby received a mixed reaction last year as This Morning won the NTA for Best Daytime Show for the fifth year in a row on October 13.
They have also both been snubbed for best TV presenter. Instead, 21-time winners Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly will compete against Alison Hammond, Martin Lewis, Claudia Winkleman and Bradley Walsh for that honour.
The final round of voting for the National Television Awards is open and the winners will be announced at the ceremony hosted by Joel Dommett at The O2 on Tuesday, September 5.
