David Walliams will be hosting the National Television Awards tonight (January 28), and he's taking the opportunity to poke some major fun at his fellow Britain's Got Talent judges.

The comic recently took to Instagram to share a picture of himself dressed as Amanda Holden, complete with long hair, a sparkly purple dress and a pearl bracelet.

His transformation clearly impressed his followers, with Natalie Imbruglia even commenting: "OMG you look so pretty."

Walliams then followed that up with a ridiculous image of himself dressed as Simon Cowell, his shirt completely unbuttoned and his trousers practically up to his nipples.

Finally, to complete the set, another image has now emerged of Walliams dressed as Alesha Dixon. The presenter is seen with long, tied-up hair, wearing a gold glittery dress and large necklace.

Walliams is hosting the NTAs for the first time, having taken over from Dermot O'Leary, who has presented the awards for the last decade.

The Little Britain star said in a statement: "I am thrilled to be the new host of the NTAs – and will ensure I also win them all!"

The presenter will be hoping he can beat Cowell to the TV Judge award, but even if he doesn't, he'll at least take pleasure in mocking his BGT co-star's infamous exposed chest hair.

The NTAs air live tonight at 7.30pm on ITV.
