The BBC should have brought Happy Valley out earlier (although not very festive fare lol). Lancashire could have for sure won again here.
Brassic was a little uneven this series but had the strongest episode of the entire show run and I hope Gilgun is nominated and wins (Maybe a body of work sentimental choice as he should have won for This is England).
Looking forward to seeing what Edwards, Allen and Agyeman can do in the upcoming dreamland for next years awards
I definitely think the traitors has a shot to be nominated in moment of the year. It was such a wave of freshness that swept through in the oversaturated market of crud reality shows. Wilf was such a good villain that he could have been nominated for best male drama performance lol
ReplyCopy URLI liked when Happy Valley aired. It felt fitting to start off the new year reflecting on a show that hadn’t been on for seven. It probably helps the show and Lancashire in the long-run to air earlier anyway so that it’s contending at the BAFTAs with the dust settled in a bit otherwise there’d be a risk of the jury overlooking the show and her because it’s too “populist” and mainstream in favour of much nicher fare (like in 2014 when Lancashire lost to Campbell).

What is it with BAFTA having an issue with populist if good?
I think it’s a lot with the jury system initially being designed to give opportunities and attention towards under-recognised work on British TV but over the years becoming more convoluted and quirky with the more variations being made. It’s understandable to me why shows like Downton Abbey, The Crown, Sherlock, Black Mirror and even Fleabag don’t tend to perform well (or as well as they do with American bodies) here because just because Americans think they’re the best British shows on TV it doesn’t neccessarily mean that British critics and people within the British TV industry think they neccessarily are but I think it becomes a big problem when landmark productions like say It’s a Sin go almost completely unnoticed in wins as a result of it just because the jury wants to go for a “more surprising choice”. It’s a dangerous path. I’m worried that they’re going to pull something similar with This is Going to Hurt this year.

Yeah, that was sort of what I meant – I get why they would go with British tastes, but it does seem somewhat extreme when they’re doing this like that.

To be fair I can understand why they went with Time over It’s a Sin in series and actor (it’s basically like if you went with Feud over Big Little Lies, a surprising choice but nonetheless not an undeserving one by any means either) but not even nominating Hawes last year was absolutely ridiculous. The critics agreed she gave one of the best performances of the year and the show’s audience agreed so why should Hawes being a big TV star be a barrier here?
I have the utmost respect for Matthew Macfadyen and his performance on Succession but him having 2 BAFTAs and his wife having 0 is… a crime.
