It’s A Snub: Channel 4 Drama ‘It’s A Sin’ Misses Out At BAFTA TV Awards

Channel 4’s lauded drama It’s a Sin missed out in several major categories at the BAFTA TV Awards this evening, as the BBC and ITV came out as the big winners. 

The Red Production Company-created drama was up for Best Mini-Series, with Olly Alexander in contention for Leading Actor and Lydia West competing for Leading Actress.

However, BBC prison drama Time won the Mini-Series category, Sean Bean won Leading Actor for the same drama and Jodie Comer’s performance in Channel 4’s Help pipped West and Kate Winslet in the Leading Actress Category.

Compounding a disappointing evening for the hotly-tipped show, Callum Scott Howells and David Carlyle lost out to Matthew Macfadyen in the Supporting Actor category. It’s a Sin writer Russell T Davies, who earlier today revealed Ncuti Gatwa as Doctor Who’s next Time Lord, had lost out to In My Skin’s Kayleigh Llewelyn at the BAFTA Craft Awards last month.

The big winner at the BAFTA TV Awards today, held at the Royal Festival Hall on London’s Southbank, was the BBC, which walked away with nine awards. Commercial rival ITV had a great night, taking home seven, while Channel 4 won five. 

It was a poor night for Netflix, which didn’t score. Amazon bagged the Best International prize for The Underground Railroad, in something of a shock in a very competitive category. Sky/HBO took home two.
