Bafta TV Awards Snub
Tuesday, March 18th, 2008
RAISED eyebrows at 8am today as the nominations were revealed for next month’s BAFTA TV Awards.
Cranford deservedly received the most nominations and should do well on the night.
But this year it’s also about who was NOT nominated.
No Ant and Dec this year or Jonathan Ross, on top form in 2007 but perhaps too rude for BAFTA.
And nothing for Coronation Street – left out of the battle for Best Continuing Drama for the first time in a decade.
So no trip to London for the Rovers Return regulars. They’ll have to watch the glittering ceremony on the telly.
Meanwhile EastEnders, The Bill, Holby City and last year’s winners Emmerdale get to sit in the posh seats.
The Corrie snub is set to spark quite a debate, not least on the pages of the MEN.
