After last year’s hugely successful awards which saw over 265,000 votes registered, the I Talk Telly Awards are back for its fifth consecutive year and fans can now cast their vote.
Leading this year’s nominations with four each are Line of Duty, Strictly Come Dancing, Top Boy and Mo Gilligan who receives nominations for The Big Narstie Show, The Lateish Show and his Netflix stand-up special.
Close behind with three nominations each are After Life, Britain’s Got Talent, The Circle, Fleabag, Stath Lets Flats, The Virtues and This Morning who’ll be hoping to make it five wins in a row as once again the show has been nominated for Best Daytime Show alongside hosts Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby and Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford who’ll be battling it out for Best TV Presenting Partnership.
When it comes to the soaps, EastEnders lead with twelve nominations, followed by Hollyoaks with seven, Emmerdale with six and Coronation Street with five.
And it’s Channel 4 who receive the most nominations this year with 46, compared to 40 for BBC One and 29 for ITV’s main channel.
This year’s awards introduce three new categories; Best US Drama which recognises the very best drama from America, Best Stand-Up Special which recognises the continued rise of specials by comedians on streaming services and TV Moment of the Year which is the only group of nominees decided for by the public as they had total control over which moments made it.
Other changes include Best Factual becoming Best Documentary, Best International Series becoming Best International Entertainment Series and Best US Drama replacing Best Single Drama.
The Special Recognition award will once again be decided solely by Elliot Gonzalez, Founder of I Talk Telly. The winner will be announced alongside the 25 winners from the public vote.
Speaking about this year’s awards, Elliot Gonzalez said “I was blown away by the response to last year’s awards so it was a no brainer to bring them back for a fifth consecutive year. It’s been another brilliant year for television and no matter how hard choosing the nominations has been, - they’ve changed a lot this year - choosing just one favourite to vote for in each category is going to be really difficult and I don’t envy the public at all in having to make that decision.”
Vote now here, voting closes at 10pm on Monday 25th November and the winners will be announced on Sunday 8th December on I Talk Telly.
