The BAFTA Film Awards 2026 7PM BBC1

[EineReiseDurchDieZeit]

Anyone going to watch? Alan Cumming is hosting

I saw Jessie Buckley on stage in Cabaret. She was brilliant.

I saw that on an Air India flight. They cut out all the swearing words ( when you consider what it was about, it was a lot!) It was still fun!

'One Battle After Another' is doing very well. DD1 really liked it.

Jealous. I saw it as well but it was Katherine Langford.

Jessie Buckley was always going to be a shoo in, but other than her, 'Hamnet' had a pretty poor showing which I think is a little surprising.

I liked the girl in one battle. She was good.

😂😂 I like how it’s the sort of movie which on the face of it you could watch with your mum on a Sunday after noon. Then realise probably not

I honestly thought it was going to win a lot - even though I've not seen it. It just gave off that 'vibe'.

Her dress would be gorgeous if it was flat at the bottom!

Oh yeah! I remember that searching for Nancy thing. That was years ago

@Raahh@IcedPurple it’s got its critics some called it manipulative.

I saw Robert Aramayo in Guess How Much I Love You a couple of weeks ago. He was brilliant

Yes. I've not seen it either but it gives off 'awards bait' vibes.

I suspect we'll see a similar performance at the Oscars. Buckley will surely win Best Actress but that will probably be it for 'Hamnet'.

Eddie Redmayme was the reason I went 😜

I wonder if TC will win his Oscar ?

I liked Hamnet and thought Jessie Buckley was brilliant in it. Yes it was emotionally manipulative but sometimes I think that's fine in a film!

Awards committees usually love that kind of thing though!

i really want to see I Swear

This is the first I've seen of him, but will look for him , because he looks great.
I'm glad they didn't go for the 'obvious' tonight.

i am a big fan of Jessie Buckley
i loved her in Wild Rose

Same

Really pleased that Robert Aramayo won for I Swear. Having followed Johnny Davidson's story since my teens, I absolutely loved the movie.

Bit of a dampener to see twitter going wild because he shouted the n word during the ceremony. A fair bit of vitriol that the tic must mean he's a closet racist. Clueless fuckwits, I hope Johnny doesn't see any of it.

Honestly, the level of ignorance around his disability is fucking infuriating.

Johnny's tics are involuntary. What he shouted was a tic. None of us - NONE of us - have control over the thoughts that pop in to our heads. We are not our thoughts (if I tell you right now not to picture a pink elephant, you can't. You can't stop yourself picturing a pink elephant). Johnny has endured, his entire life, the inability to not vocalise the random shit that pops into his head, and as such he spends his whole life on tenterhooks that he might say the worst thing possible, which paradoxically makes him very likely to say the worst thing possible. It has fuck all to do with his character or his soul. In an airport, the last thing he wants to shout is bomb, as soon as that thought hits, he shouts bomb. It's entirely beyond his control.

I'm assuming you've not seen the movie. Do yourself a favour and watch it.

What are you saying @TheLilacEagle ? People with Tourettes can't control what they say. That's the whole point of it.

Well said @JasmineMac
