The 2026 TV Choice Awards are here - and the competition’s fierce! From dazzling dance floors to quick-fire quizzes, this year’s finalists are packed with the shows that kept us laughing, talking and tuning in week after week. Now it’s over to you - who gets your vote?
Best Talent Show is bursting with fan favourites that prove Britain’s still got plenty of star quality. Will Strictly Come Dancing – and spin-off It Takes Two - waltz away with your vote after another glittering season? Or could The Great British Bake Off - along with An Extra Slice, Junior Bake Off, Bake Off: The Professionals and Stand Up To Cancer rise to the occasion? Maybe it’s Britain’s Got Talent, with its jaw-dropping acts and golden buzzers, or The Masked Singer, where the voices are big and the reveals even bigger. And The Great British Sewing Bee, which continues to stitch up the competition with creativity and charm - which show will you back?
Best Entertainment Show brings together the programmes that never fail to lift our spirits. Will Gogglebox or Celebrity Gogglebox win you over with their laugh-out-loud reactions? Maybe it’s Michael McIntyre’s Big Show, full of surprises and the moments everyone’s talking about. Could Bradley & Barney Walsh: Breaking Dad take your vote with their heart-warming father-and-son adventures? Or will The Graham Norton Show’s A-list sofa chats or the quick-fire comedy of Would I Lie To You? get your support?
Best Food Show serves up plenty of flavour this year. Will James Martin’s Saturday Morning cook up a win, or could Saturday Kitchen’s mix of guests and mouth-watering recipes take the crown? Jamie Oliver’s Eat Yourself Healthy, Fast & Simple, £1 Wonders and Money-Saving Meals prove you don’t need to spend a fortune to eat well, while Sunday Brunch mixes great cooking with laid-back weekend chat. And Ainsley’s Fantastic Flavours, which adds a burst of flavour and feel-good fun to the line-up – which show will you back?
Best Game Show is where the competition really heats up. Will The 1% Club puzzle its way to victory, or could The Chase – along with Beat The Chasers and Celebrity Specials - sprint ahead? Maybe Michael McIntyre’s The Wheel will keep turning towards a win, or Ant & Dec’s Limitless Win grab your vote with its high-stakes tension. And Pointless and Celebrity Pointless remain firm favourites for clever clues and light-hearted fun - which show gets your vote?
