Kaye then bitterly confessed: ‘Meanwhile Denise and I were sitting next to each other practicing our loser faces’.

She then told Denise she was ‘particularly good’ at hers before the mother to Matty Healy confessed she had ‘given up’.

‘I have given up after so many years of it’, she admitted.

Denise then demonstrated her ‘well practiced losing face’ as she faked a smile and clapped her hands to the side of her face.

Laughing away at her act, Kaye added: ‘We did win once, when did we win?’

Denise confirmed that they last won a NTA gong in 2010.

Sunetra then quipped: ‘After 25 years there is no one that can compete with this show…’ before she was drowned out by the sea of applause by her fellow panelists.

Wednesday night saw Ant and Dec awarded the Best Presenter honour for a record 23rd time as they led the big winners at the 2024 National Television Awards at London’s O2 Arena.
