Coronation Street snubbed at TV BAFTAs

The BAFTA TV Awards 2023 saw popular ITV soap Coronation Street snubbed from the final nominations list.

BAFTA hosts take brutal swipe at This Morning duo

Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield suffered a brutal dig at the BAFTA TV Awards. 

Hosts Rob Beckett and Romesh Ranganathan didn’t hold back with the feuding pair, amid the ongoing drama at This Morning. 

Bringing up a past scandal the This Morning presenters were embroiled in, Rob said he was looking forward to the next series of The Crown. 

“Holly and Phil probably got early access to the episodes,” the comic added. 

The gag got a mumble of awkward laughter from the crowd. 

Ben wins Best Actor

Ben Whishaw wins it for his stunning performance in This Is Going To Hurt.

He beat out some of the world’s most famous stars, including Cillian Murphy and Gary Oldman.

What an achievement!

Fans left fuming as Imelda Staunton snubbed

In a major surprise for ­viewers Imelda Staunton, who plays The Crown’s Queen, was snubbed as lead actress.

One fan said: "The only one to win the bafta was Vanessa Kirby because queens and princesses: Claire Foy, Olivia Colman, Helena Bonham Carter, Imelda Staunton and Lesley Manville never won and that's too offensive."

Royal wins at the BAFTAs

The Queen’s skit with Paddington Bear was crowned the most ­Memorable Moment at the BAFTAs last night.

Simon Farnaby played a footman in the heart-warming sketch which came during the Platinum Jubilee celebrations.

He said: “I can tell you that Paddington had a very joyful Jubilee tea that day.

“But it was also perhaps a farewell because, of course, the person who most deserves this award is no longer with us to receive it.

“We can only accept it on her behalf and say thank you, Ma’am, for everything.”

Ben Whishaw, the voice of Paddington, said: “It was wonderful to be asked and most of all I thought the Queen did a great job of acting with nothing.

“It was just a stick and a tennis ball on it. She did a brilliant job.”

Party At The Palace was named best live event.
