Who, in the last 12 months, has got you hitting the record button on your remote so hard it now resembles your lipstick after the Christmas office party? Which show have you been DYING to watch the next episode of, EVEN WHILE YOU’RE WATCHING THE CURRENT EPISODE? How have you managed to contain your excitement seeing X Factor’s Jake Quickenden jump ship to I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! literally five minutes after he got famous?
Yes, it’s time for the National Television Awards – the NTAs if you’re into abbreviating – and WHAT a line-up we’ve got this year.
Join us on the night of Wednesday 21 January as heat goes behind the scenes at the NTAs – expect plenty of glossy pics as we peruse the red carpet fashion, lots of excitable live-tweeting over @heatworld and, above ALL else, a weirdly sexual pursuit of NTAs host Dermot O’Leary in his tight, tight trews.
WE CAN’T WAIT! Make sure you get your votes in by clicking this link – and find out below which programmes and actors are nominated for awards.

GALLERY: TV Choice awards 2014 - all the best dressed on the night
TV Choice awards 2014 - best dressed
1 of 17Brooke Vincent
Well hellooo fashionista! Corrie's Brooke looked super sleek in her shimmery two-piece with glossy locks and smoky eyes.
2 of 17Charley Webb
Emmerdale's Charley looked fresh faced and pretty in her LBD and heels. Loving that GoT-inspo 'do, too.
3 of 17Catherine Tyldesley
Another baby bump looking lovely in a stunning gown! Cath worked old school glamour with red lips and soft waves.
4 of 17Andrea MacLean
Andrea proved the hard Tumble work has paid off, showing off her very toned fram in a mini playsuit and heels. Proper slick pose, too.
5 of 17Georgie Thompson
TV presenter Georgie perfectly dressed her petite bod in a floor length noir gown. Not easy when you're mini but she pulled it off!
6 of 17Chloe Sims
Yes, it's OTT and almost too sparkly to look at but it's Chloe Sims, babes! We like the TOWIE gal's glam gown. So much more interesting than Lydia's boring beige number.
7 of 17Gillian Taylforth
We know Gill's frock is proper sparkly and looks a bit like a bauble but it's jazzy and we like it. She obvs does, too.
8 of 17Jacqueline Jossa
We've already said it but she looks so good we'll say it again! Best dressed mini baby bump at the TV Choice Awards fo' sho'.
9 of 17Jessica Wright
Jess skipped the frothy ballgowns her fellow TOWIE pals wore in favour of a cool pleated leather midi and crop.
10 of 17Kian Egan and Jodie Albert
Looking very much the minimal-glam couple in chic tailoring.
11 of 17Lucy Pargeter
We applaud Lucy's brave move, swerving sexy frocks for masculine tailoring. And with those legs, why not?
12 of 17Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan
Mich and Mark opted for elegant evening looks in black and white. Saving the sequins for Strictly, eh, Marky? And, erm, where's your jacket, mate?
13 of 17Natalie Lowe
Strictly star Natalie was well at home in her glamorous gown, shimmying all over the place on the red carpet. Nothing popped out though. Bonus!
14 of 17Nicky Sanderson
Nikki's long frock brought a blast of colour to the party.
15 of 17Patsy Kensit
Scary make up aside, Patsy's frock is actually alright.
16 of 17Sair Khan
We loved Corrie's star Khan's bright coral midi. The neckline on the hot frock gave her look a cool nod to the 90s. And how glossy is you hair?! Well jell.
17 of 17Charlotte Hawkins and Susannah Reid
A bit of a tricky one. We like Charlotte's golden cocktail dress but Reid's bright number looks like it's ruched all the way up her lady parts.
