PIERS Morgan has taken a swipe at his former employer ITV before a cheeky dig at the NTAs and host Joel Dommett.<\/p>\n
The Talk<\/span> TV firebrand, 58, was in devilish form on the red carpet<\/span> at London's O2 last night where he vied to win the TV Interviews<\/span> gong.<\/p>\n When asked by The Sun how it felt to pip former show Good Morning Britain onto the shortlist, Piers said: "Obviously I don\u2019t want to intrude into private grief but it feels good. It\u2019s great to see a new show like ours, only 16 months old, that has got a nomination at the National Television<\/span> Awards for our interviews which we think we do better than anyone else.<\/p>\n "Thank you, Meghan [Markle], once again \u2013 for getting me out of ITV<\/span> and for getting me the nomination. I am very grateful."<\/p>\n Piers's GMB tenure famously came to an end after he clashed with co-star Alex Beresford live on air over his views about the Duchess of Sussex.<\/p>\n On the night, Piers, who braved a trip on the tube for the first time in 30 years to make it to the Greenwich venue, lost out to Graham Norton.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Piers' name was met by a chorus of cheers and boos when host Joel told the audience he was in attendance.<\/p>\n It prompted Joel to say, \u201cHey, everyone, say what you like about Piers Morgan…\u201d before trailing off and turning his attention to Louis Theroux.<\/p>\n After the show, Piers gave a tongue in cheek overview of his evening, writing on X, formerly known as Twitter: "Got the Tube in searing heat.. got mocked by a host I\u2019ve never heard of\u2026 got booed by an audience of shrieking banshees\u2026 got beaten by Graham bloody Norton.. and now getting the first limo I can find to get the hell outta here.
