Although ’s flagship breakfast programme is usually a shoe-in for a nomination at the National Television Awards, This Morning has not been included in the daytime category.
Instead, Lorraine, Loose Women and Men, Make It At Market and Scam Interceptors are the shows in the running.
Meanwhile in the reality category, I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! has missed out on a nomination following backlash to the inclusion of Nigel Farage and its subsequent ratings plummet, but perhaps more surprising is the absence of Big Brother which returned to rave reviews in 2023.

However despite being nominated in the comedy category, none of the cast of Big Boys were singled out in the male or female performance in a comedy categories.
Another snub is James Norton’s final turn as Tommy Lee Royce in the third season of Happy Valley, which came to an epic conclusion at the start of last year.
Instead, leading actor nominations have gone to Brian Cox for Succession, Dominic West for The Crown, Kane Robinson for Top Boy, Paapa Essiedu forThe Lazarus Project, Steve Coogan for The Reckoning and Timothy Spall for The Sixth Commandment.
However his former co-stars Sarah Lancashire, Siobhan Finneran and Amit Shah were recognised in the leading actress and supporting actress and supporting actor categories.
Meanwhile other leading actors including Gary Oldman (Slow Horses) and Jonathan Bailey (Fellow Travelers) also missed out.
There have already been mixed responses to the nominations, with one person posting on X: ‘Nothing at the Baftas for Fellow Travelers and Jonathan Bailey. Not really surprising, but still disappointing.’
Meanwhile some others have declared: ‘Justice for James Norton.’
The BAFTA Television Awards with P&O Cruises and BAFTA Television Craft Awards winners will be announced April 28, however the main Bafta Television Awards ceremony will be held in May 12.
