Ant McPartlin was spotted looking solemn as he headed home from the BAFTA TV Awards at the Royal Festival Hall in London on Sunday evening.
The TV presenter, 48, has received 19 BAFTA TV Awards for his various entertainment shows with his showbiz counterpart Declan Donnelly over the years.
However, Ant left the evening empty handed this year after comedian Joe Lycett was awarded the Best Entertainment Performance gong for his show Late Night Lycett.
The double act were last awarded a BAFTA TV Award in 2022 for Saturday Night Takeaway, which came to an end this year after 20 years.
Prior to this, they won big in 2019, receiving awards for two of their shows, I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! and Britain’s Got Talent.

Stepping onto the red carpet, he wore a flowing silver cape, which resembled a gown, and high ruff around his neck.
He accessorised the outfit with a black ribbon and carried two fans – one battery-powered and one manual – presumably to help him through the stifling heat.
The TV personality made sure to he went all out and dyed his hair a dark red, in tribute to the Queen Elizabeth I who reigned from 1558 to 1603.
The unique choice of evening wear was the result of Joe losing a bet he had made with his aunts, Margaret and Pauline.
He had said on his show Late Night Lycett that he would wear a period dress for the glitzy event, if they managed to get 100,000 followers for their new Instagram account.
The pair received huge support from the public, including Eastender’s Natalie Cassidy who even offered to go as Joe’s lady in waiting.
Speaking on the red carpet, Joe, who won the Entertainment Performance Award, admitted that his Aunties had infact reached their target meaning he had lost the bet.
‘Hence this oven-baked salmon that I’m in’ he told Michelle Visage.

He quickly added: ‘This is the hottest I’ve ever been, I think. I’m over the moon with it, it’s got such scale but it’s not costume, it’s modern.’
Joe went on to praise the designer ‘Out of Your Gaze’ for the piece, who he said had been sewing for 18 hours to complete the outfit on time.
Later on in the night, Joe was presented the Entertainment Performance Award by Am I Being Unreasonable’s Lenny Rush.
Visibly shocked, Joe went onstage in the outrageous outfit to collect his gong.
‘I lost a bet, hence this’ he told the audience before adding: ‘I’m so hot and I need a p**ss!’
Ever the funny man, the comedian then went on to say: ‘Thanks to my mum and dad, Anne Boleyn and Henry VIII.’
Posting a video to his socials, Joe captioned it, ‘Serving Tudor realness.’
Kate Night Lycett is a comedy entertainment series, fronted by Joe live from his hometown of Birmingham.
It includes madcap games, hilarious sketches, Joe’s aunties, and celebrity guests.
