Piers Morgan’s grimace at not winning at the NTAs is a treat for us all
There’s something about Piers Morgan that just screams “bad loser”, in spite of the fact that he gets a lot of practice by being owned so often by Gary Lineker. When he heard the news that Good Morning Britain had bean beaten to the Best Daytime Show award by This Morning, his fury showed so clearly on his face that the viewers couldn’t help but notice.

His long-suffering co-host, Susanna Reid, had a charmingly laid-back attitude.
We didn’t win…so what?!

It prompted this tongue-in-cheek reaction …
I demand a 2nd vote… the British public didn’t know what they were doing when they voted. https://t.co/ySzFl3dn44

Leaving himself open to Gary Lineker’s best shot.

GOAAAAAAAL!
The miserable Mr Morgan also posted this photo.
That moment when you lose at the NTAs and your own co-workers find it funny… 🤬 pic.twitter.com/uKtepH94ln

But one of the co-workers in question had a very different perspective.
It’s my nervous laugh of what tomorrow is going to bring!!!

Winners, ITV, had a very generous offer to put a smile on his face.
Bad luck, @PiersMorgan. We can tell you're absolutely delighted for @ThisMorning for scooping Best Daytime Show though. Vegan sausage rolls all round! @Schofe @HollyWills @RuthieeL @RochelleHumes @EamonnHolmes @AlisonHammond2 @OfficialNTAs #NTAs pic.twitter.com/GHgiPSCerK
