BAFTA TV Awards Winners: Matthew Macfadyen, Netflix’s ‘Top Boy’ Take Home Major Prizes; ‘The Crown’s Final Season Leaves Empty-Handed – Full List

UPDATED with complete winners list: Despite being up for four acting category awards, The Crown‘s final season left the BAFTA TV Awards empty handed tonight in London.

Elizabeth Debicki, Lesley Manville, Salim Daw and Dominic West were all snubbed, as the the likes of Matthew Macfadyen, Jasmine Jobson, Timothy Spall and Sarah Lancashire all triumphed and the Netflix show went out quietly.

There was also a major surprise in the International category, where little-known French drama Class Act beat the likes of Beef, The Bear and The Last of Us to win the prize. Among the most shocked was the show’s star Laurent Lafitte, who urged the audience to find and watch his show — to the amusement of the audience.

The first award of the night saw Jobson beat off competition from actresses from The Crown, Succession and The Last of Us to win Best Supporting Actress for her role in gritty British Netflix drama Top Boy.

Top Boy went on to pick up the coveted Drama Series awards, defeating Slow Horses, the Apple TV+ cop drama.

Shortly after Jobson’s win, Matthew Macfadyen repeated his trick from 2022 and 2010 to win Best Supporting Actor. Macfadyen, representing Succession, beat the likes of The Crown‘s Daw, Jack Lowden and Eanna Hardwicke to take home the Best Supporting Actor gong for the third time.

Later in the evening, the Leading Actor award somewhat surprisingly went to Timothy Spall, who defeated strong competition from the likes of Steve Coogan, to win for BBC drama The Sixth Commandment.

Sarah Lancashire, a British awards favorite, took home her second Best Actress award in the final prize giving of the night.

On the programs front, the Limited Series award went to The Sixth Commandment, making it a good evening for the true-crime drama about the murder of a university lecturer. Squid Game: The Challenge won the new Reality category.

The awards took place today (May 12) in London at the Royal Festival Hall. Romesh Ranganathan and Rob Beckett are once again hosting, with scores of the UK’s biggest stars in attendance.

A time-delayed version of the event has been broadcasting at 7pm local time on BBC and is streaming on BBC iPlayer. In the U.S., Canada and Australia, the show will stream on BritBox from 2pm ET.

Scores of the UK’s biggest stars hit the red carpet and are now settling down for dinner and afterparties. The likes of Baby Reindeer creator Richard Gadd, Jeff Goldblum, Martin Freeman and Aidan Turner delivered gongs.
