The National Television Awards took place in London’s 02 Arena last night and the Irish stars did us proud, taking home three major awards.
Wexford man Dermot O’Leary also flew the flag for Ireland, presenting the glamorous event for the eighth year in a row, and was a pro as always.
Much-loved comedian Graham Norton was awarded with the NTA’s Special Recognition Award and celebs such as Will Smith and Dolly Parton were on hand to pay tribute to him.
