The BAFTA TV awards are taking place tonight, but people are only talking about two things. The weird muting that's been spotted among viewers at home during a number of It's A Sin nomination clips, and the fact that Callum Scott Howells didn't take away the gong for Best Supporting Actor.
Russell T Davies's It's A Sin missed out on two awards at the ceremony on Sunday, May 8 - including Best Supporting Actor and Best Mini-Series. Cast members Omari Douglas and David Carlyle were also up for the award of Best Supporting Actor, alongside the Rhondda 's own Callum Scott Howells. It's been one of the most critically acclaimed dramas of the year, but viewers have been left outraged at the lack of awards handed out to It's A Sin.
Many people shared their views on Twitter, also appearing to be furious at the unexplained lack of audio of some of the clips of the show. Andrew Brown said: "Why do they keep muting the audio on It’s A Sin clips? #BAFTAS #Baftas2022", while another social media user, Jay Baker, said: "It's a sin not getting any awards so far is daylight robbery. Also the BBC muting it's a sin scenes ... I see you BBC ... #Baftas2022."
