Kate Garraway has revealed her shock after being nominated for the documentary she made about her husband Derek Draper's battle with coronavirus.
Finding Derek is up for the Authored Documentary prize at this year's National Television Awards.
Her film is shortlisted alongside Katie Price : Harvey and Me, Marcus Rashford: Feeding Britain’s Children, Rob Burrow: My Year With MND and Roman Kemp: Our Silent Emergency.
And while Kate is honoured to be nominated, she's confessed that she doesn't think she stands a chance of winning.
Kate is also remaining hopeful that her husband Derek Draper will be well enough to attend this year's National Television Award.
The Good Morning Britain presenter's husband is still recovering from a year-long battle with coronavirus that saw him lie in hospital in a coma for what must have felt like endless months for Kate and their children Darcey and Billy.
On GMB, Kate was congratulated on her nomination by her co-star Charlotte Hawkins.
Kate said: "I didn't know until I saw it in the papers this morning, it's wonderful for the production company and for Derek, it's wonderful."
She went on to say how lovely it would be for Derek to attend the ceremony with her on September 9.
She added: "I was just thinking wouldn't it be wonderful if Derek is well enough to come? Wouldn't it be wonderful."
And thinking about the possibility, Kate went on: "I was trying to look at the dates and work out the logistics of how that might work.
"There are some brilliant people in the category, there's some brilliant documentaries, I don't think for the moment we'll win. But it would be lovely for him to be there."
Derek was first admitted to hospital in March 2020 after contracting Covid-19.
He became gravely ill and was placed into an induced coma when his blood oxygen levels dropped severely.
He spent 12 months in hospital before he was well enough to go home, but his health battle is far from over and he still requires round-the-clock care.
Kate was seen on the documentary transforming the house to make it easier for Derek to get around.
The emotional film, broadcast on ITV, saw Kate recall doctors telling her Derek was the most seriously ill person they'd seen with Covid who had survived.
He's considered to be the longest-surviving Covid-19 patient.
