National Movie Awards
The National Movie Awards was a British film awards ceremony broadcast by ITV in which the winners of the awards were chosen via popular vote. The awards were initiated in 2007 following the success of the National Television Awards, the highest-rating awards ceremony for television. The winners were voted for by the public over the internet, phone and by filling in a form which had been made available at UK cinemas.
The first three ceremonies were held at the Royal Festival Hall in London, with the fourth and final ceremony taking place at Wembley Arena, London. The awards were originally axed in 2009 but returned in 2010. They were axed again by ITV in March 2012.
