BAFTA TV Awards 2021: See full list of winners
The Bafta TV Awards 2021 celebrating the best and brightest talent from the British TV industry in the past year was held on Sunday.
The award, which took place at London’s iconic Television Centre was hosted by Richard Ayoade, who won Best Male Comedy Performance BAFTA for The IT Crowd seven years ago, according to Hollywood Reporter.
The event was kicked off by Years and Years, with lead singer Olly Alexander performing his new single Starstruck on an outdoor stage, dressed for the occasion in a stylish co-ord.
Michaela Coel emerged as the big winner at Sunday’s BAFTA TV Awards, where her drama ‘I May Destroy You’ added to its growing stash of statuettes.
Other big winners at the event included Paul Mescal, who took home the BAFTA best leading actor for his turn in BBC Three and Hulu drama Normal People.
He beat hotly-tipped rivals including John Boyega (Small Axe) and Josh O’Connor (The Crown).
