Comedians Romesh Ranganathan and Rob Beckett will be back to host the proceedings, following a warm reception to their hilarious work last year.

Beckett said: "Romesh and I are absolutely buzzing to be back hosting the BAFTAs. We’ve not seen or spoken to each other since last year when we hosted so it will be good to catch up.

"It’s a real privilege to continually get work together even though our friendship is fake and completely fabricated for commercial gain."

Ranganathan added: "I really thought I’d done enough last year to be asked to host it solo this time, but hosting it with Rob again is also an honour I suppose."

The BAFTA Television Awards honour the finest small screen work from across all genres, including hit dramas Top Boy and Slow Horses, acclaimed comedies Dreaming Whilst Black and Extraordinary, and unforgettable entertainment from The Graham Norton Show and the Eurovision Song Contest 2023.

Among the many nominations, David Tennant has earned his first ever BAFTA TV Awards nomination for his role in Good Omens, but that's not all. Amit Shah (Happy Valley), Bella Ramsey (The Last of Us), Bridget Christie (The Change) and Elizabeth Debicki (The Crown) are all first time nominees.

Anjana Vasan, Paapa Essiedu and Kane Robinson are also among the individual actors and personalities to get nods – but who will take home the prestigious prizes on the night? Read on for a full list of nominations so you can get speculating.
