Kate Garraway chats about NTA nomination on Good Morning Britain Kate Garraway was overcome with emotion on Good Morning Britain , as she discussed her late husband Derek Draper. During a segment about the hottest TV updates with co-host Sean Fletcher and showbiz expert Richard Arnold, it was announced that Garraway is in the running for another prestigious accolade at the upcoming National Television Awards. Garraway's powerful documentary 'Derek's Story' has been shortlisted for the Best Authored Documentary NTA, where it faces stiff competition from Rose Ayling-Ellis's 'Signs for Change' and Rhod Gilbert's candid 'Stand Up To Cancer' special 'A Pain in the Neck'.
Also nominated are star-studded documentaries by Robbie Williams and David Beckham. Upon learning of her nomination, Richard Arnold encouraged her with the words: "If you go home with that gong it'll be a hat-trick."

But I would love it to do well, I would love people to recognise it because it's Derek's story and also it was really all about carers. Unpaid and paid. I'd like them to get some focus, really," reports the Mirror .
Richard concurred, adding: "Amen to that." The latest addition to her documentary works underscores the vital role of caregivers during the latter part of Derek's life, an issue that visibly moved.
