Rush hour London traffic left some stars fearing they would miss the National Television Awards on Tuesday (23 January) night.

The likes of Scarlett Moffatt, Gemma Collins and ‘Coronation Street’ cast members were delayed for the event after getting gridlocked en route.

Former ‘Gogglebox’ star Scarlett tweeted she could still see the hotel she was staying in, despite having been in her car for over an hour. 
Can still see my hotel and I’ve been in the car an hour ?? London traffic stopping people from making the NTAs red carpet since 1995 ? #ntas
Meanwhile, ‘TOWIE’ regular and memay queen Gemma was not a happy bunny as she got caught up in traffic on her way to London’s O2 Arena, where the event was being held.

Posting a video of her and ‘Celebs Go Dating’ co-star Nadia Essex in the back of their car, she tweeted: “Jeez traffic. SADIQ KHAN can we sort out the traffic. Will I even make the NTAS been in car since 5 pm @SadiqKhan please help.”

Nadia added: “Stuck in traffic but having a ball in the car with my datemissgemcollins.”

‘Coronation Street’ actress Faye Brookes – better known as Kate Connor in the ITV soap – posted a video on her Instagram, revealing she was also stuck.

“We’ve had to get out the car, we may not make it!” she said.

Before the start of the awards at 7.30pm, other celebrities including Holly Willoughby, Phillip Schofield, Susanna Reid, Katie Price and Vicky McClure all walked the red carpet, having managed to get to the venue without too much hassle.
