The main British television award where stars of UK television gather and future hits are predicted.
BBC One has been broadcasting the British Academy Television Awards since 1954. The ceremony honors the best television shows, actors, writers, and directors in the UK. The first awards took place in 1954 with six nominations, and since 1998, the ceremony has been held separately from the BAFTA Film Awards. The tone is formal but with a British touch of self-irony. The format is an annual live ceremony. If you enjoy the Oscars, Golden Globes, or awards shows in the spirit of the Emmys, the BAFTA TV Awards remains one of the key events in the television industry.
