The BAFTA TV Awards Nominations Are Here

The BAFTA TV awards 2019 are peeking over the horizon and as we prepare to celebrate the very best of British television, the full list of nominations has just landed.

Unsurprisingly, it's shaping up to be an incredible year for the BBC who released a barrage of hit shows last year and earned themselves some of the highest viewing figures they've seen in years. Bodyguard? We were all hooked. Mrs Wilson? Gosh, what a performance by Ruth Wilson. Killing Eve? ICYMI, we still can't stop talking about it.

Just yesterday the shortlist for Virgin Media's public voted Must-See Moment was announced, with Phoebe Waller-Bridge's multi-award-winning spy drama Killing Eve earning a nomination there, too. It's also received nods for Sandra Oh and Jodie Comer in the Leading Actress category, will compete against Bodyguard and Informer in the Drama Series category, and Fiona Shaw and Kim Bodnia have each been nominated for Supporting Actress and Actor. With the second series due to air in America in the next couple of weeks (and land in the UK shortly after, we hope), things are looking pretty damn good for the show, don't you think?

Other exciting shows worth mentioning include Derry Girls and Sally4Ever's nominations for Scripted Comedy; Louis Theroux's Altered States, which has been recognised in the Factual Series group; and of course, Great British Bake Off found its way into the Features category. Among the notable exclusions is The Long Song, BBC One's adaptation of Andrea Levy's wonderful book about the last days of slavery in Jamaica. Though it didn't quite hit it off with audiences in the way we thought it might, there were a few suspicions that The Little Drummer Girl would get a nod somewhere along the way, but it seems its chance for a gong is at the BAFTA craft awards, which are separate from the television awards. Did your favourite show get a mention? Read ahead to see the full list of nominations (and pray for worthy wins in a couple of months' time).
