Where else can you see Stephen Graham and Tom Hardy rub shoulders with Phil Mitchell?

The surreal spectacle of Phil Mitchell and David Platt contesting the same trophies as Stephen Graham and Tom Hardy will never get old, and that’s the beauty of the National Television Awards. Their profiles may be worlds apart but they all ply the same trade, and if “Adolescence” vs “MobLand” is the headline act, “Coronation Street” vs “EastEnders” is the NTAs’ lifeblood.
Here’s how to watch NTAs 2025 online from anywhere with a VPN — and potentially for free.
NTAs 2025 — Date, time and TV channel
The 2025 National Television Awards take place on Wednesday, September 10.
• Time — 8 p.m. BST / 3 p.m. ET / 12 p.m. PT / 5 a.m. AEST (Thu.)
• WATCH FREE — ITVX (U.K.)
• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN 100% risk free
The New Drama award stands to be the night’s highest honor, and despite the rave reviews received by “Code of Silence”, “Ludwig”, “MobLand” and “Rivals”, it’s impossible to look past “Adolescence”. In the vein of “Mr Bates vs The Post Office”, Graham and Jack Thorne’s four-part crime drama triggered a national conversation about the radicalization of children by social media influencers — in this case woman-haters.
Graham will also go head-to-head with his teenage co-star Owen Cooper in the Drama Performance category. Brenda Blethyn, Rose Ayling-Ellis and Hardy are also shortlisted, for their work on “Vera”, “Code of Silence” and “MobLand”, respectively.
Joel Dommett may be anchoring proceedings, but watching his every move at London’s O2 Arena will be the cream of British TV presenters, namely Ant & Dec, who have swept past 23 TV Presenter awards, “GBBO”‘s Alison Hammond, “The Traitors”‘ Claudia Winkleman, “Sort Your Life Out”‘s Stacey Solomon and Gary Lineker, who remains synonymous with “MOTD”, despite being removed from the post by the BBC.
Read on as we explain how to watch the NTAs online from anywhere, including free options.
How to watch NTAs 2025 for free in the U.K.

You can watch the 2025 National Television Awards on free-to-air ITV1, with live streaming available via ITVX.
The 2h 30m ceremony starts at 8 p.m. BST on Wednesday, September 10.
You can sign into ITVX for free with your email and a U.K. postcode (zipcode), such as W1A 1AA.
Outside of the U.K. when it’s on? Use a VPN to get around the geo-restrictions that will prevent ITVX from working. Scroll down for more information and instructions.
How to watch NTAs 2025 from abroad
Thanks to the wonders of a VPN (Virtual Private Network), the NTAs should be available to Brits no matter where they are. The software allows your devices to appear as if they’re back in your home country regardless of where in the world you are. Our favorite is NordVPN – and you can find out why in our NordVPN review.
Exclusive deal
NordVPN deal: 3 Extra Months FREE
Boasting lightning fast speeds, great features, streaming power, and class-leading security, NordVPN is our #1 VPN.
✅3 months extra FREE!
✅74% off usual price

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we’ve said, NordVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you’re in the U.S. and want to view a British service, you’d select U.K. from the list.
3. Sit back and watch the show. Head to ITVX to watch NTAs 2025 for free.
Can I watch NTAs 2025 in the U.S.?

Unfortunately, the 2025 National Television Awards aren’t airing in the U.S..
If you’re a Brit currently across the pond you can catch the show for free by using a VPN, such as NordVPN.
Can I watch NTAs 2025 in Canada?

It’s highly unlikely that the 2025 National Television Awards will air in Canada either.
If you’re a Brit in the Great White North for work or on vacation you can catch the ceremony for free by using a VPN such as NordVPN.
Can I watch NTAs 2025 in Australia?
(Image credit: Shutterstock)
The National Television Awards haven’t been picked up for broadcast in Australia.
However, Brits Down Under for work or on vacation can catch the NTAs by using a VPN, such as NordVPN.
