He paired the tuxedo jacket with a crisp white shirt and a colourful bow-tie.

This year sees a record amount of streamed TV shows nominated for awards, as Netflix's Bridgerton makes the Best New Drama shortlist, with both Ricky Gervais' After Life and teen comedy drama series Sex Education up for awards too.

Plenty of TV favourites such as I'm A Celebrity... Get me Out of Here!, RuPaul's Drag Race and Strictly Come Dancing are all competing for the Talent Show award, but First Dates has failed to be nominated for any awards this year.

However, Fred was all smiles as he attended the bash, looking every bit the doting dad.

Olympian Andrea isn't normally seen glammed up, and not many realise she is the TV personality's daughter.
