Jodie Comer and Stephen Graham up for BAFTA TV awards, as It's A Sin gets 11 nominations

The 2022 BAFTA nominations have just been revealed and the BBC drama It's A Sin dominated the shortlist.

Up for a whopping 11 awards, the story centring around the Aids/HIV crisis of the 80s is nominated for lead acting and supporting roles, along with mini-series and must-see moment. BBC drama Landscapers isn't far behind with seven nods.

The lead actor role this year is comprised of David Thewlis for Landscapers, Hugh Quarshie for ITV's Stephen, Samuel Adewunmi for BBC' s You Don't Know Me, Sean Bean for Time and Stephen Graham for Channel 4's Help. Meanwhile, the leading actress nominees include Jodie Comer for Help, It's A Sin's Lydia West and Kate Winslet - who starred in HBO/Sky Atlantic's Mare Of Easttown, marking The Titanic star's first TV performance nomination.
