While Baby Reindeer and Mr Bates vs. The Post Office went into the night with the most nominations (both of which actually aired in 2024, but outside the eligibility period for last year’s ceremony), it was actually the BBC’s adaptation of Bernadine Evaristo’s Mr Loverman that took home the most awards, with two prizes to its name.
Despite its winning streak at the likes of the Emmys and Golden Globes, Baby Reindeer picked up just one award for Jessica Gunning’s unnerving portrayal of Martha, while the game-changing Mr Bates vs. The Post Office was named Best Limited Drama.
Meanwhile, HuffPost faves like Danny Dyer, Rylan Clark and Gavin & Stacey star Ruth Jones all became first-time TV BAFTA winners, while Strictly once again won in the fan-voted Memorable Moment category for Chris McCausland’s striking Waltz routine, and Joe Lycett triumphed for Late Night Lycett for the second year running.
