Here’s the latest around BAFTA TV Awards 2026 based on recent reports.
Nominations and host: The 2026 BAFTA TV Awards nominations were announced in late March, with 124 programmes receiving nominations. The ceremony is set for 10 May 2026 at the Southbank Centre in London, and Greg Davies is hosting the main ceremony.[2][4]
Notable nominees: Adolescence leads with 11 nominations, followed by A Thousand Blows with 7, and both Andor and Trespasses with 6 each; The Celebrity Traitors also features prominently with multiple nominations. Sky News’s Gaza: Fight For Survival is recognized in the news coverage category.[4][2]
International category change: BAFTA expanded the International category voting to all 6,000 TV members, moving away from a jury-only process for the first round to include broader member voting for nominations and winners. This represents a significant shift in how international entries are decided for 2026.[1][8]
Additional context: Craft awards entries were opened for 2026, with both the TV Awards and Craft Awards inviting submissions earlier in the year, as part of BAFTA’s ongoing restructuring and openness to new entrants.[7]
