Lord Sugar has let loose with an explosive rant following Kate Garraway’s best authored documentary win at the NTA’s, suggesting there is a bias towards ITV stars.

The Apprentice star, 77, took to social media to pen a series of angry tweets about the National Television Awards, which took place on Wednesday night.

As the awards show was airing, he wrote on X: ‘Kate Garraway it is truly a very sad story. ANOTHER ITV award to one of their employees.’

The BBC star continued: ‘You are deluded.

There are ways to fiddle votes. ITV got done 10 years ago for fiddling the prize competitions.’

Good Morning Britain host Kate, 57, beat all the competition and took home the best Authored Documentary gong for Derek’s Story, which follows the last few months in the life of Derek Draper, Kate’s late husband.

In another Tweet, he angrily fired: ‘The Chase another ITV show. Who counts the votes? coincidence!’

Adding: ‘Actually for the record the Apprentice has won every other TV award except NTA. COINCIDENCE!’

He then took aim at Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly, writing: ‘Double award for Ant and Dec. This NTA’s is an ITV show. Coincidence or not?

‘Guess what the cookery, travel, football, beauty and football category have been won by Ant and Dec.

‘Surprise Surprise Ant and Dec win an award at the NTA. DONALD TRUMP would say it’s a fix.’

The duo were awarded the Best Presenter honour for a record 23rd time, as well as picking up the gong for the Bruce Forsyth Entertainment Award.

One social media user questioned: ‘Were you not there Alan? The Apprentice was up for an award.’
