Where do we look? Carol Vorderman fronted up to the National Television Awards at the O2 tonight in a very revealing dress, that she originally wore to an awards ceremony in 2010


Her saucy taste in red carpet outfits are becoming her trademark. And Carol Vorderman's outfit for the National Television Awards tonight at the O2 Arena didn't disappoint in that department.

The 51-year-old wore a pale pink floor-length dress that featured a plunging neckline and bustier, putting her cleavage on display for yet another glittering occasion.

The television presenter recycled the daring dress, which she originally wore to the Rose D'Or Awards in Switzerland in September 2010 - and it raised just as many eyebrows first time round.

Carol added to the sex appeal with tousled hair and smokey eye make-up.

She posed with the somewhat more understated Janet Street Porter, Andrea McLean, and Lisa Maxwellon the red carpet.

McLean put on a brave face, smiling widely despite the revelation this week that she and her husband have called it quits.
