Three awards for BBC America thriller and nods for Patrick Melrose and Sally4Ever
Killing Eve won three awards at last night’s Baftas while victories for Patrick Melrose and Sally4Ever helped Sky to a record haul.
The former BBC America drama, which was not initially eligible under Bafta’s usual entry criteria, picked up the coveted best drama series award, while Jodie Comer and Fiona Shaw scooped top prizes for lead and supporting actress respectively.
Comer defeated Killing Eve co-star Sandra Oh, while BBC1’s A Very English Scandal struggled, only winning for Ben Whishaw’s best supporting actor performance.
Sky’s record haul of five Baftas included best mini-series for Edward St Aubyn adaptation Patrick Melrose, along with best actor for lead Benedict Cumberbatch.
The pay-TV broadcaster also won for A League of Their Own in comedy entertainment programme and best international for HBO co-pro comedy/drama Succession.
One of the night’s bigger surprises came courtesy of Julia Davis’ Sally4Ever, beating opposition from Channel 4’s Derry Girls.
Inside No 9’s Steve Pemberton picked up best comedy actor while best comedy actress was awarded to Jessica Hynes for her performance in BBC4 comedy/drama There She Goes.
The BBC’s factual team won across-the-board, including victories for Louis Theroux’s Altered States in factual series, Who Do You Think You Are? in features and Gun No 6 in single documentary.
Channel 4’s news and current affairs department performed similarly well. The Dispatches strand won best current affairs for Myanmar’s Killing Fields and the C4 news team won best news coverage for Cambridge Analytica Uncovered.
BBC3’s Killed By My Debt defeated Black Mirror’s Bandersnatch episode – Netflix’s only nomination – to take best single drama.
There was also recognition for All3Media-backed Little Dot Studios, which won the inaugural shortform programme award for Real Stories episode Missed Call.
After a troubling year, the night was a good one for ITV presenting duo Ant & Dec, who won best entertainment programme for Britain’s Got Talent, while reality and constructed factual went to I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!.
Joan Bakewell was awarded the Fellowship and Red Production Company founder Nicola Shindler picked up the special award.
