TV - BAFTA Television Craft Awards


We always like celebrating the talent behind the scenes and screens of our favourite shows so here's the full list of this year's winners of the BAFTA Television Craft Awards (along with the ones Susan Omand said should have won)...

There was no scandal as A Very English Scandal, the drama mini-series based on the Jeremy Thorpe scandal, was successful in three of the eight BAFTA categories it was nominated in: Costume Design, Director: Fiction and Editing: Fiction. Other multiple award winners included spy drama Killing Eve, starring Jodie Comer and Sandra Oh, which was successful in Original Music and Sound: Fiction, and Patrick Melrose received the Production Design and Writer: Drama awards. Talking of writing, following their success at last year’s ceremony, Daisy May Cooper and Charlie Cooper won in Writer: Comedy for This Country.

The award for Entertainment Craft Team was presented to the BBC Studios team for Royal British Legion Festival of Remembrance, which paid tribute to the victims of war and conflict. The Director: Factual BAFTA was presented to Ben Anthony for Grenfell.

First-time winners included: Barbara Wiltshire in Director: Multi-Camera for Inside No 9 Live: Dead Line; Will Gilbey in Editing: Factual for Bros: After the Screaming Stops; Lindsay McCrae in Photography: Factual for Dynasties: Emperor; and Woo-hyung Kim in Photography & Lighting: Fiction for The Little Drummer Girl.

The Make-Up & Hair Design BAFTA was presented to Vanity Fair. The award for Sound: Factual was won by Later Live…With Jools Holland. Special, Visual & Graphic Effectswas won by Troy: Fall of a City, and, for Titles & Graphic Identity, the 2018 Winter Olympics ‘The Fearless are Here’ won the BAFTA.

BAFTA continues to shine a spotlight on the very best emerging talent in the industry with its Breakthrough Talent category, won this year by composer, producer and writer Akemnji Ndifornyen for Famalam.

Script supervisor Emma Thomas was presented with the BAFTA Special Award for her outstanding contribution to the industry. Emma has acted as script supervisor on some of the most cherished television shows including Goodnight Sweetheart, Birds of a Feather, Benidorm, Bad Education, Luther and The Bill. Most recently, Emma was the script supervisor on Soon Gone: A Windrush Chronicle for BBC Four, a series of monologues that reveal the hopes, desires, achievements, shattered dreams and broken promises of a single fictionalised family over four generations. The award was presented by Greg Davies. 

The rest of the BAFTA Television Awards will be presented on May 12th.
