Airdate: 64th BAFTA Awards

UK TV will screen Britain's top film accolades next month, with all eyes on The King's Speech.

We’re missing out on the SAGs next week but at least next month we’ll get the 2011 BAFTA Red Carpet and Film & Craft Awards.

They will air on UK TV on Monday February 14, with the Red Carpet at 7.30pm & the Award Ceremony at 8.00pm (not live).

Australian nominees include:

Iain Canning, Emile Sherman, Geoffrey Rush (producers) The King’s Speech (Best Film / Outstanding British Film)
Geoffrey Rush – The King’s Speech (Best Supporting Actor)
Kirk Baxter – The Social Network (Best Editing).

Join the frocks and fabulousness of the 2011 British Academy of Film and Television Arts Awards.

Fast-tracked to air exclusively on UKTV less than 24 hours after the event in London, the BAFTAs recognise the best examples of film, television and video gaming from the preceding year.

The BAFTAs, which have been running for over 60 years, are the UK’s leading independent charity for the support, promotion and development of the art of moving film in the UK.

The BAFTAs traditionally celebrate their Television Awards later in the year

  1. I agree that someone should show the SAGs. It think it’s a poor show by Australian TV, considering that Geoffrey Rush and others are up for awards and all the dross they show on Foxtel during the day, it wouldn’t hurt to take a couple of hours out for the SAGs.

    Well done UKTV for airing the BAFTAs. At least they have some sense of patriotism.

  2. Thanks, good news there – i wish a network would reconsider the SAG awards. Now that The Kings’ Speech has won the Producer’s Guild award, there is considerable talk of a win now at both SAG and BAFTA, before Oscar night. A boilover, if The Social Network which has won every pre-cursor prize, loses now.
