I’m thrilled to share that BAFTA has just announced the nominees for the 2024 BAFTA Television Craft Awards and BAFTA Television Awards, presented in partnership with P&O Cruises!
This is a celebration of the best TV offerings in 2023, and guess what? A whopping 118 programs have snagged nominations today!
Top Nominations
Now, let me spill the beans on the top ten shows that are leading the pack:
- “The Crown” is absolutely killing it with eight nominations.
- “Demon 79” (a part of Black Mirror) is hot on its heels with seven nods.
- “Happy Valley,” “Slow Horses,” and “The Sixth Commandment” each proudly stand with six nominations.
- Not too far behind, “The Last of Us,” “The Long Shadow,” and “Succession” have bagged five each.
- And let’s not forget the “Eurovision Song Contest 2023” and “Once Upon a Time in Northern Ireland,” each earning four nominations.

The nominations were chosen through a blend of votes from the TV membership, expert juries, and Chapter voting, ensuring a rich diversity of opinions and expertise. This year, over 500 voters across 127 hours participated in 43 juries and four Chapter votes, all dedicated to celebrating creative brilliance and ensuring a fair and robust selection process.
I can’t wait to see who takes home the awards this year. It’s going to be an unforgettable season for British TV, and I’m here for all of it!
