What is the new Prince Harry inspired category for National Television Awards 2023?

The National Television Awards (NTA's) has had a bit of a shake up. It’s the biggest night for TV and celebrates the best of British Television. The NTA’s has been on our screens for since Eamonn Holmes first presented it in 1995. The winners are voted entirely by the public and reflect the genuine opinions of people at home watching. 

The award show will be hosted by comedian Joel Dermott and air in October. There will be two new categories Reality Competition and TV Interview and will lose TV Expert and Talent Show Judge. There are 16 categories in total including Factual, Serial Drama, Returning Drama, TV Presenter and more.

The new category ‘TV Interview’ was allegedly inspired by the shocking revelations Prince Harry spoke about in his interview with ITV news presenter Tom Bradby. There are 14 nominees in the section; others include Louis Theroux Interviews, The Light We Carry: Michelle Obama and Oprah Winfrey and Piers Morgan Uncensored.

Whilst promoting his memoir ‘Spare’ Prince Harry sat down with Tom for a 60 minute interview. In it he revealed secrets such as he asked to see his mother  Princess Diana’s death certificate, he hadn’t spoken to his father in a long time and ‘the fab four’ (Prince William Kate Middleton, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle) was reportedly forced by the UK press. Prince Harry has just lost his challenge over bid to pay for UK police protection.

Another new category is the 'Reality Competition' which will include shows like The Traitors, SAS: Who Dares Wins and Love Island. These new categories will replace TV Expert and Talent Show Judge Martin Lewis and Anton Du Beck were the winners of these categories last year.
