EXCELLENT!
Of course, I would've nominated Martin too but you can't have it all.

**Posted by This Is The Phantom Lady** July 14, 2016 4:39 pm

Yeah, I have to agree! But anyhow, this is awesome

Twist and defuse!! (well not in TAB... lol.)

Thank you for the link! I'll have to see if there are any Danish influences, I'd love a chance to watch the show (if it's televised? I've never seen it before)

I think there is no category for supporting actors. And I would say that while John is very important to the show, this episode more than any other is about Sherlock.

Susanne Bier is nominated as best director for The Night Manager

Very good.
I thought I'd seen a headline about Andrew and Tom going head to head in something...?!

**Posted by This Is The Phantom Lady** July 14, 2016 7:14 pm

Thank you, I actually forgot she was the director! (I might have been much more focused on two male actors in that one...)

**Posted by Vhanja** July 14, 2016 7:19 pm

Oh, that is awesome! Yeah, I miss a nomination for Martin as well.

Well it's very hard not to be mainly focused on this two superb actors.

A nomination for the writing would be nice, too.

But honestly Ben, Tom and Idris in one category is mean!

Keeping my fingers crossed. :-)

I'm not up to speed with Idris (who I think is fab).
Tom was great, but for me, not as great as Benedict.
Though actually, in his couple of scenes, as usual, I feel Andrew outshone them all.

**Posted by This Is The Phantom Lady** July 15, 2016 8:21 am

Ah yes, Andrew was worthy of a nomination too!

**Posted by Ariane DeVere** July 15, 2016 12:03 pm

I'm particularly delighted about the Cinematography nomination. I thought it was awesome, and am chuffed to bits that it's being recognized.

During the Holmes/Moriarty confrontation at 221B I remember saying out loud on first viewing, "Poor Martin - good as he is, he's never going to get another Best Supporting Actor nomination while Andrew keeps knocking it out of the park the way he does." I guess, however, that Andrew wasn't in the episode for long enough to deserve a BSA nomination.

**Posted by besleybean** July 15, 2016 12:43 pm

It's a shame I know, because he steals the show every time he appears...maybe that's the real reason for writing Moriarty out of the show!

I ADORE Idris Elba.
