The current method of the Baftas, which is a two-hour non-live broadcast, is not effective. This is because anyone, including myself, can simply check the BBC website beforehand to see who the winners are. Switching to a live broadcast would also not work, as it would interfere with the popular show Countryfile. I am unsure of the best solution. Would a YouTube livestream be more successful? Perhaps an emailed press release? Maybe just two hours of Andy Serkis announcing the winners into a bin? I am at a loss for ideas.
Baftas. Lucky us.
The Zone of Interest, Poor Things, a film about Jellyfish, and a film about crabs all claim awards. Poor Things also takes home another award. As the hard work wraps up, the final three awards of the evening are announced.
Choosing McKenna-Bruce is an excellent decision.
The Zone of Interest, The Holdovers, and Oppenheimer each receive an award. Oppenheimer wins an additional award. 20 Days in Mariupol also wins an award. It is unclear if the BBC intentionally shortened acceptance speeches that offered insights on the world. However, this allowed for more space at the top for humorous dog puns.
Argylle is certainly a favorite among the Baftas, isn’t it?
