' Stephen Graham’s acclaimed Netflix drama Adolescence dominated the British Academy Television Awards at London's Royal Festival Hall on Sunday. The ceremony, hosted by Greg Davies, saw Stephen, 52, win Best Actor for his portrayal of a father confronting the aftermath of a brutal crime involving his teenage son. It was a landmark moment for Stephen, who had missed out on seven previous nominations for shows including Help, Time and This Is England '90.
The four-part Netflix show, which received a staggering 11 nominations when they were announced in March, received the most ever wins for a series as it also took home Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress and Limited Drama. Adolescence, which was created by actor Stephen and writer Jack Thorne, tells the story of British teenager Jamie Miller , who is found guilty of murdering a female classmate after being sucked in by the manosphere online.
Each episode is filmed in one continuous shot and has been widely praised for addressing topics such as online radicalisation and misogyny. The Inbetweeners star, 57, took to the stage at Royal Festival Hall to host the star-studded evening, where the great and good of television were in attendance Owen, 16, who has made history by becoming the youngest winner of the Best Supporting Actor award at both the Golden Globes and the Emmy Awards, continued his award-winning streak as he took home the BAFTA for Best Supporting Actor.
Meanwhile, Christine Tremarco, who played Owen's mother in the show, won Best Supporting Actress in a surprise result beating co-star Erin Doherty, who previously took home the Golden Globe and Emmy Award. Stephen wiped away tears as Christine took to the stage and said: 'I hold this BAFTA high to Hannah Walters and Stephen Graham, thank you so much.
' Code Of Silence scooped Best Drama while the Lead Actress BAFTA went to Narges Rashidi for Passenger 951. Amandaland starring Lucy Punch won the BAFTA for Scripted Comedy.
However, Lucy and her co-star Philippa Dunne missed out on the Actress In A Comedy gong, which went to Katherine Parkinson for her performance in BBC One's Here We Go. Meanwhile, The Celebrity Traitors won Best Reality, days after the BBC announced the celebrity line-up for the second series of the hit spin-off, with comedian Alan Carr being recognised in the public-voted memorable moment category after breaking down in tears during the series.
Owen Cooper has become one of the most decorated young actors in history after completing his awards season clean sweep at Sunday's BAFTA TV Awards Elsewhere during the ceremony, the documentary Gaza: Doctors Under Attack won the Current Affairs category after becoming embroiled in controversy surrounding the BBC’s decision not to broadcast the film over impartiality concerns. The documentary was later picked up by Channel 4. Journalist Ramita Navai criticised the BBC while accepting the award.
Channel 4 additionally received recognition for its reporting on the Iran conflict, while historian Simon Schama won for his BBC Two documentary The Road to Auschwitz. The factual series category went to Channel 4’s See No Evil, which examined the Church of England abuse scandal surrounding serial abuser John Smyth and contributed to renewed scrutiny surrounding safeguarding failures within the institution.
