The nominations for this year’s BAFTA Television Awards have been revealed today (April 8), and as you’d expect, there’s a more-than-decent showing of Anglophenia favorites. Benedict Cumberbatch is up to six BAFTA nominations now. This is the third year he is listed in the leading actor category for his part in Sherlock, no mean feat […]
The BAFTA Film Awards have only just finished, the confetti being packed away and the red carpet rolled up for another ceremony on another day. And it’s clear that in the big battle of the boffins between Benedict Cumberbatch and Eddie Redmayne, there has been a clear winner, and it’s not Sherlock. In fact, The […]
Nominations are in for this year’s BAFTA TV Awards, which will be held on Sunday 18 May, and as you’d expect, they make a compelling case for the current strength of British television. First—and most interesting for fans of the golden age of cinema—is the news that Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton are both nominated in […]

Most notably, there are the 11 nominations for Gravity, including best film and best British film, best director, and best actress […]
This weekend it’s the BAFTA Television Awards, hosted by Graham Norton.

And, while many […]
It’s a smart bet that Meryl Streep will win a shiny BAFTA award – a golden face mask mounted on a squat pedestal – as Best Actress on Sunday for her widely praised turn as former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher in The Iron Lady. (The BAFTA ceremony will air on BBC America at 8 […]
The longlist for the British Academy Film Awards is out, in preparation for the ceremony on February 12, and as you’d expect, a lot of Anglophenia-friendly films have been nominated.
