‘Killing Eve,’ ‘English Scandal’ Lead BAFTA TV Nominations

The 2019 BAFTA TV nominations are in, and it’s mostly all about Killing Eve and A Very English Scandal. The nominations are for Eve‘s first season as the second season premieres internationally April 7. However, the strong showing for A Very English Scandal – including nods for Hugh Grant, Ben Wishshaw, and Monica Dolan – portend a potential strong showing at the 2019 Emmys. The most fascinating omission is the absence of Golden Globe winner Richard Madden from Leading Actor for BBC One’s Bodyguard. BAFTA recognized the smash series with six nominations overall including one for Leading Actress for Keeley Hawes, but Madden was missing from the final list. Is this a blow for his 2019 Emmy chances?

Take a look at the full list below.
