EastEnders' Kellie Bright isn't one to let an annoyance like traffic delay her NTAs partying.
The actress delivered her drink order to EastEnders co-stars via Twitter from the motorway – so that's all sorted then.
When co-star James Bye boasted of getting his drink on, Kellie Bright replied: "Can you please get @MrDDyer to get me a drink? I am stuck in traffic"
"It's waiting for you," Bye politely replied.
There's no word yet if Bonnie Langford or Ant & Dec have a Hot Toddy waiting for them, since they're also gridlocked on her way to the gala.
The ladies better hurry up – they'll presumably want to be in the O2 Arena by the time EastEnders competes against Coronation Street, Emmerdale and Hollyoaks in the Best Serial Drama category.
Dermot O'Leary presents the 21st National Television Awards tonight on ITV.
