    interesting choices – BAFTA will still be a significant player in the gamne this year. More for picture and director, I reckon. Mulligan or not at BAFTA, don’t think it will affect Actress.

    Aragorn75,

    I suspect the Evening Standard is to BAFTA
    as NYFCC is to AMPAS.

    more like, “Here’s how cool we are. Top that. Your move.”

    Last year was around 2:00 p.m. ET, Charlie. Tape-delayed broadcast on BBC America, 5 or 6 hours later that evening. But we’ll be following it live from one source or another.

    Carey losing to Meryl at BAFTA would be awful.

    Peter Capaldi was robbed. Bruno was hilarious as a character on Da Ali G Show but the film was almost unwatchable.

    Holy crap – HELEN!

    I saw that movie at a festival nearly two years ago now. It’s phenomenal – like a Hitchcock movie directed by Tarkovsky – but I had no idea it received any attention from anyone outside the festival circuit. Good to see it nominated here.

    Brendon: Helen was on UK critic Mark Kermode’s Top 10 list. He has done video blogs about it. It looks quite interesting.

    I think the BAFTAs are broadcast live on BBC1, so you should be able to find it on (shhh) TV streaming websites if you look hard enough…
