With trademark slime, awards and celebrity appearances, the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards 2020 went ahead (almost) as normal this year.

Like many events in 2020, coronavirus meant that Victoria Justice hosted the awards ceremony remotely with a long list of big names appearing via video link.

Winners on the night included Avengers: Endgame for Favourite Movie; Stranger Things won Favourite Family TV Show, Henry Danger for Favourite Kids TV Show and Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson for Favourite Movie Actor.

BTS won Favourite Group, Ariana Grande won the Favourite Female Artist category and Shawn Mendes took home the Favourite Male Artist award.

Avengers heroes reassembled virtually to accept the award in the Favourite Movie category.

Robert Downey, Jr (Iron Man) Chris Evans (Captain America) Chris Hemsworth (Thor), Scarlett Johansson (Black Widow), Mark Ruffalo (Hulk) and Jeremy Renner (Hawkeye) all appeared via video chat.

"We are so happy that the Kids' Choice Awards are still happening." Johansson said.

Mark Ruffalo agreed, saying: "The show must go on, life must go on."

Chris Hemsworth added: "You kids, you're the absolute greatest, and we are stronger together. And amongst this group, I'm the strongest, obviously. But we know that." Something that Captain American actor Chris Evans disagreed with.

As the pair squabbled over who is the strongest, a frustrated Johansson interrupted saying: "This was my life for a decade."
