BAFTA-nominaties zijn bekend!

Op 13 mei worden in de Royal Festival Hall in Londen de Britse BAFTA’s voor televisie uitgereikt. Een uitgesproken favoriet is er niet want vier programma’s kregen elk drie nominaties: The Crown, Black Mirror, Line Of Duty en de miniserie Three Girls. De series die zullen strijden voor ‘beste drama’ zijn The Crown, Line Of Duty, Peaky Blinders en The End Of The F***Ing World, een terechte keuze. Maar helaas zijn dit ook de enige nominaties voor Peaky Blinders en The End Of The F***ing World.

Wat internationale series betreft, gaan de nominaties naar: Big Little Lies, The Handmaid's Tale, The Vietnam War (een tiendelige documentaire reeks die momenteel te zien is op Canvas) en Feud: Bette And Joan.

Met de Craft-Awards erbij (zie The Crown voert nominaties voor Craft Awards aan) haalt The Crown in het totaal 10 nominaties, gevolgd door Black Mirror met 8 en Peaky Blinders, Taboo en Three Girls met elk 6 nominaties.
