When are the BAFTA TV Awards? 

This year's star-studded ceremony will take place on Sunday, May 12.

The awards will return to their usual stomping ground at London's Royal Festival Hall for another year after they chose to switch it up in 2023.

Last year marked a brief change in venue as they held the awards ceremony at the Queen Elizabeth Hall at London's Southbank.

How can I watch BAFTA TV Awards? 

The show will be broadcast live on BBC One, BBC One HD and BBC iPlayer from 7pm.

Meanwhile, red carpet interviews will be streamed across BAFTA and BBC social media channels.

This year's BAFTA Television Awards with P&O Cruises will be hosted by comedians Rob Beckett and Romesh Ranganathan for the second year in a row

This year's BAFTA Television Awards with P&O Cruises will be hosted by comedians Rob Beckett and Romesh Ranganathan for the second year in a row.

The TV stars who appear in the reality travel series Rob And Romesh Vs together hosted the annual awards ceremony for the first time last year.

Rob, 38, said: 'Romesh and I are absolutely buzzing to be back hosting the Baftas.

'We've not seen or spoken to each other since last year when we hosted so it will be good to catch up.

'It's a real privilege to continually get work together even though our friendship is fake and completely fabricated for commercial gain.

'My teeth aren't even that big I wear false ones so I can joke about them.

'On top of that Romesh isn't even Asian he just pretends to be so he can do his mum's accent'.

Romesh, 45, joked that he thought he had 'done enough' last year to be asked to host it solo this year, adding: 'Hosting it with Rob again is also an honour I suppose'.

In addition to announcing this year's nominations, BAFTA also announced P&O Cruises as its headline sponsor for a subsequent year.

Who is nominated?

The stars in the running for the Leading Actress gong include Anjana Vasan for Black Mirror, Anne Reid in the Sixth Commandment and Bella Ramsey for The Last Of Us.

Also nominated in the category is Helena Bonham Carter for Nolly, Sarah Lancashire for Happy Valley and Sharon Horgan for her role in Best Interests.

In the Leading Actor category, Brian Cox has been nominated for Succession, Dominic West for The Crown and Kane Robinson for Top Boy.

Also in the running is Paapa Essiedu for The Lazarus, Steve Coogan for The Reckoning and Timothy Spall in The Sixth Commandment.

Despite the strong line up, fans were disappointed that Happy Valley's James Norton didn't make it into the shortlist for Best Actor. 

Coogan's nod comes following a wave of controversy over his role as paedophile Jimmy Savile, which aired on BBC last year despite claims for it to be scrapped.

His portrayal of the depraved presenter was described as 'eerily good', however the series sparked criticism for making entertainment out of the harrowing events.
