BBC Sherlock Fan Forum - Serving Sherlockians since February 2012 / BAFTA 2015 (for Television)

Maybe it'll become unnecessary, but the nominations announcement is tomorrow. Someone here (I forget who, sorry) was so kind to explain that due to rules changes Sherlock could be nominated this year.
So lets hope the best and keep your fingers crossed. I guess it would be for HLV, which had the strongest scenes and dialogues (my favourite in that episode was the scene when the Watsons "have a domestic" that was such brilliant acting.)

One and only. There was only one nomination for Sherlock in craft categories, as well.

Congrats for Benedict!
Very gutted that Martin was again overlooked for this season.

But i think that they got two crafts noms (for sound and for editing) and two normal TV nom (for Benedict and that popularity award voted by the public).

Congrats to the team and keeping fingers crossed. (I would not put it past BAFTA to snub Benedict again but I choose to think positive.)

Congratulations on the nomination to Benedict!

Well deserved if you ask me. Obviously.

**Posted by gently69** April 8, 2015 10:04 am

Maybe he can get it this time? Would be something new.

I already voted.

Well, so four nominations, then.

They don't have a "best script" category?!

I've given my vote too!

**Posted by A lovely light** April 8, 2015 12:52 pm

They have a "writing" award (Moffat was nominated in 2012 for ASIB if i remember exactly), but no nomination there.

I think Benedict has a great chance to win this year - it was his year (and third time luck ;) ). I don't know none of the other three nominee and their shows thought.

Yes I 'd voted too. As I am completely blank to the other candidates of Best Leading Actor , I don't know how high the chance is Ben will get this award.

I haven't seen a writing category. Moffat got a Special Award in 2012 (for his achievement in writing) presented by BC and Matt Smith. And he got the Emmy for HLV last year.

They are under craft awards:

So, he won two awards in 2012: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_Moffat#Awards_and_nominations (one for Sherlock and the special one)

The Sherlock team won both craft awards for which they were nominated - sound and editing. Congrats, this is amazing!

**Posted by mrshouse** April 26, 2015 7:59 pm

Brilliant! Well deserved!

**Posted by This Is The Phantom Lady** April 26, 2015 8:11 pm

YAY! Certainly deserved
