National Television Awards 2024: EastEnders stars Jessie Wallace and Shane Richie are matching as they both don black suited ensembles for a joint red carpet appearance


The former onscreen soap couple - famous for their roles as Kat Slater and Alfie Moon - made a joint appearance for Wednesday's award ceremony at The O2 in London.

Meanwhile, Jones will go up against actress Jessica Gunning, who has also been nominated for the drama performance gong for her role as Martha Scott in dark comedy thriller Baby Reindeer, in which her character stalks comedian Donny Dunn after he offers her a free cup of tea in the pub where he works. While Claudia Winkleman - whose other show The Traitors is nominated for Reality Competition - is listed in the TV presenter field, she will have to overcome a tough challenge from the likes of Alison Hammond, Bradley Walsh, Stacey Solomon, and longtime winners Ant and Dec. Elsewhere, in the Serial Drama Performance category, Coronation Street's Peter Ash is nominated for his role as Paul Foreman, who has faced a devastating battle with Motor Neurone Disease.
