Top Boy, The Crown and Black Mirror lead the BAFTA TV nominations

BAFTAs TV nominations.

The BAFTA Film Awards has come and gone, and this year the likes of Emma Stone, Cillian Murphy and Da'Vine Joy Randolph went home with the prestigious golden award. And while the 2024 award season has largely come to a close, there's still room for one more - the BAFTA Television Awards with P&O Cruises and the BAFTA Television Craft Awards. 

This year, the 2024 BAFTA Television Awards with P&O Cruises will take place in early May at London's Royal Festival Hall and the nominations are finally here. Those both in front of and behind the camera when it comes to the best TV shows of the past twelve months will be honoured at the glitzy and glamours ceremony in the capital. 

So, who is looking to sweep up this year? Well, The Crown and Black Mirror are the front runners with the most nominations. Elizabeth Debicki is nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her portrayal of the late Princess Diana in the sixth season of the popular royal drama, while Anjana Vasan is in the running for Best Actress for her performance in Demon 79.

There are also multiple nods to Top Boy, with nominations in the Leading Actor (Kane Robinson), Supporting Actress (Jasmine Jobson) and Drama Series categories, while Succession may see success in the Supporting Actor (Matthew Macfadyen) and International categories.
