Jasmine Jobson Beats ‘The Crown’ Pair To Win Best Supporting Actress For ‘Top Boy’ — BAFTA TV Awards
Jasmine Jobson has won the BAFTA TV Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role in Netflix drama Top Boy.
She beat off competition from the likes of Elizabeth Debicki and Lesley Manville for their roles in The Crown.
The award was the first dished out at this year’s event and continues the rise of Jobson, whose role as Jaq in the gritty Top Boy has been a breakout for the British star.
Top Boy follows the lives of a pair of east London drug kingpins played by Ashley Walters and Kane Robinson, the latter of whom is up for Best Actor tonight.

Exclusive: Sarah Greene is “excited” to be at the center of a high-stakes “love triangle” involving James McArdle and Emun Elliott in Sexy Beast, the Paramount+ prequel to director Jonathan Glazer’s 2000 classic.
Greene tells me she is a great admirer of Amanda Redman’s sultry performance as former adult actress Deedee Harrison – the role that holds a place in the annals of gangster movie history – and the part that the Cork-born Normal People star takes on in the Sexy Beast drama that premieres on Paramount+ this Thursday, January 25.
Greene watched the movie “over and over again and just studied her through line. And she’s very still, she doesn’t say a whole lot.”
We chat just as the actress is in the midst of shooting the second season of Bad Sisters with her Garvey siblings played by Sharon Horgan, Anne-Marie Duff, Eva Birthistle and Eve Hewson. “We were all like,...

“Sex Education” Season 4 has arrived.
It’s been two years since Season 3 landed on Netflix and a lot happened last installment, especially within the crumbling walls of Moordale Secondary School. Jemima Kirke’s quirky headmistress Hope Haddon did her best to glue the cracked foundation of the school — left behind by Mr. Groff (Alistair Petrie) — but she couldn’t stop the demise of the doomed school with her attempts to smother any freedom of expression. Thus, all of the beloved students, most of whom were clients of Maeve Wiley (Emma Mackey) and Otis Milburn (Asa Butterfield) who ran a sex clinic together, had to transfer schools. We’ll let Season 4 speak for itself as to the fate of the Moordale students as well as other characters in the show.

There's never a dull moment in Moordale, but Sex Education Season 4 Episode 4 will go down as one of the series' darkest installments yet.
The series did a great job of infusing humor through the darkness, but it's difficult to believe things will get much better for everyone as Sex Education Season 4 continues.
Erin was never the best mother to her children, and let's just say Maeve and Sean will harbor a lot of resentment towards her.
At one point, Maeve didn't care whether her mother was in her life because Erin had many selfish traits, but they managed to work through their issues on Sex Education Season 3.
On top of that, Erin was instrumental in her decision to go off and study in the U.S., so while observers might paint her as a terrible mother, there was a lot of good in her.
It's just sad her children never...

This story about Dearbhla Walsh and “Bad Sisters” first appeared in the Down to the Wire: Drama and Limited Series issue of TheWrap’s awards magazine.
The first time director Dearbhla Walsh met Sharon Horgan, it was to discuss Walsh directing the first episode of Horgan’s horror-comedy series “Shining Vale.” But in that conversation, the comic actress and writer also mentioned a different project that really piqued Walsh’s interest.
“She said, ‘I have this other show that I think you’d love,’” Walsh said. “‘It’s about five Irish sisters who plot to murder their brother-in-law.’ And I said, ‘You had me at five Irish sisters, which means we have to shoot in Ireland. And murdering their brother-in-law — what’s not to love?’”

Indeed, contract negotiations between SAG-AFTRA and the AMPTP broke off last night and the guild’s national board will meet this morning U.S. time to formally approve the launch of a strike. As we reported, it will be the first actors’ strike since 1980 and the first time that actors and writers have been on strike at the same time since 1960, when Ronald Reagan was president of the Screen Actors Guild. Picketing is set to begin Friday morning.

Many shows are about one thing in particular, with a number of subplots serving to support the main theme. While in some ways that is the case with the Apple TV+ drama “Bad Sisters,” there’s so much going on at any one given time that it’s almost hard to keep track of what started it all in the first place. That would be, of course, the death of The Prick (Claes Bang), also known as Jp, the manipulative, abusive husband of Grace (Anne-Marie Duff), and the show’s central mystery: did Grace’s four sisters kill him, and, if so, how did they do it?
This show moves seamlessly between multiple timelines, chronicling the inciting incident for each of the sisters that made them hate Jp, their multiple efforts to concoct a way to cleverly dispose of him, and the aftermath when a pair of insurance investigator brothers...

By the end of 2022, Eve Hewson was already having a very good year by virtue of the fact that she was one of the stars of Sharon Horgan’s “Bad Sisters,” a very serious and very funny series about a group of four Dublin sisters who scheme to kill the man who is abusing their fifth sister. Then the “Nepo Babies” furor erupted after a December article in New York magazine, and Hewson — whose father is Paul Hewson, aka U2’s Bono — dropped a couple of funny tweets and came across as one of the few who handled it all with wit and perspective.
Then came January 2023, when the 31-year-old Irish actress headed to the Sundance Film Festival with “Flora and Son,” a delightful and touching musical drama from “Once” director John Carney. Playing Flora, a single mother who starts taking guitar lessons as a way to connect with her sullen son,...

During a wide-ranging conversation at the Banff World Media Festival, award-winning multihyphenate Sharon Horgan discussed her lauded series Bad Sisters and the ongoing WGA strike.
Horgan, who was on hand at Banff to receive the Award of Excellence, sat down with The Hollywood Reporter editorial director Nekesa Mumbi Moody to talk about the audience and critical reaction to the Apple TV+ show, which has been ordered for a second season. “You really don’t know,” said Horgan when asked if the response to the show was expected. “In this case, [we’re] making a show about a woman in a domestic abuse situation, but we’re doing really broad comedy around that. You think, ‘Are people going to be really offended, or are we going to be able to strike the right tone?'”

If your sister was being abused by her husband, what would you do? For Bad Sisters‘ Garvey siblings, the answer was simple. But killing their brother-in-law proved more difficult than they expected, not that they ever thought it’d be a walk in the park. Eve Hewson plays the youngest of the five sisters, Becka Garvey. The women were raised by eldest sister Eva after the deaths of their parents years prior. Becka is the first to volunteer to kill J.P. (Claes Bang), but through two timelines and many failed murder attempts, J.P.’s killer remains a mystery until the final episode. The Apple TV+ dark comedy will be back for Season 2. Here, Hewson shares how she, Horgan, Anne-Marie Duff (Grace), Eva Birthistle (Ursula), and Sarah Greene (Bibi) made the Garvey sisters’ closeness so believable, what to expect in Season 2, and why she feels Becka was the role...

“I was a bit nervous taking her on. I hadn’t really played a character like her before,” remembers actress Sarah Greene about accepting the role of Bibi Garvey in the Apple TV+ drama series “Bad Sisters.” Bibi is “front-footed and doesn’t really care what people think of her. I would be much more of a people-pleaser. So it was a bit of a challenge for me.” Watch our exclusive video interview with Greene above.

“Bad Sisters” had a terrific night at the BAFTA TV Awards on Sunday 14, May. After winning Best Titles and Graphic Identity at the BAFTA Craft Awards, the Apple TV+ show took home Best Drama Series and Best Supporting Actress for Anne-Marie Duff on the Sunday just gone, bringing its awards total up to three BAFTAs.
The show follows the five Garvey sisters, led by Sharon Horgan‘s Eva, who all try to kill the abusive husband (Claes Bang‘s Jp) of Duff’s Grace. Meanwhile, two insurance agents (Brian Gleeson‘s Thomas and Daryl McCormack‘s Matthew) attempt to prove the sisters’ involvement in Jp’s death.

“How strongly are you guys considering ‘Bad Sisters’ at the moment? Right now I only have it getting writing, but I’m wondering if I’m over/underestimating its chances,” wonders forum poster LittleLucky about the Emmy potential of the Apple TV+ drama series. What do you think? Join the discussion here in our forums to let us know.
“Bad Sisters” is an Irish series that follows five sisters embroiled in a murder plot: one of them is married to an abusive man (Claes Bang), so the other four set out to kill him. It just won BAFTA TV Awards for Best Drama Series and Best Supporting Actress for Anne-Marie Duff as the abused sister in question. So will that translate to Emmy love? The two awards don’t commonly overlap, but programs like “Sherlock,” “Wolf Hall,” and “Killing Eve” have been recognized at both events in recent years.

It was a big night for Irish talent at this year’s British version of the Emmys, the BAFTA TV Awards, which were doled out at the Royal Festival Hall in London. Hosted by Romesh Ranganathan and Rob Beckett, two Irish series — – “Bad Sisters” and “Derry Girls” — won a pair of prizes as did the telefilm “I Am Ruth.”
“Derry Girls” won Best Scripted Comedy for its fourth and final season, which was a lovely parting gift for writer and creator Lisa McGee. The show beat out “Ghosts,” “Big Boys,” and “Am I Being Unreasonable?” although the latter did pick up the prize for Best Comedy Actor for 14-year-old Lenny Rush. He edged out Matt Berry (“What We Do In The Shadows”), Joseph Gilgun (“Brassic”), Stephen Merchant (“The Outlaws”), Jon Pointing (“Big Boys”), and Daniel Radcliffe (“Weird: The Al Yankovic Story”).

Netflix’s Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story has won Best International show at the BAFTA TV Awards.
The Netflix hit beat off competition from fellow Netflix series Wednesday, HBO’s The White Lotus, Apple TV+’s Pachinko, and Disney+ double Oussekine and The Bear.

Currently starring in Apple TV+ series Bad Sisters, which she co-created, Horgan plays Eva Garvey, the oldest of five sisters, one of whom is married to the truly awful John Paul (Claes Bang).

The British version of the Emmys is set for Sunday, May 14 with the main ceremony of the BAFTAs taking place in London. While these awards aren’t exactly a, uh, crystal clear crystal ball for the Emmys, they can give some insight into which British shows may make the successful trip across the Atlantic. At the same time, it also gives an insight into which American shows are proving to be the Brits’ particular, uh, cup of tea.
This year’s BAFTA ceremony will take at the Royal Festival Hall and will be hosted by comedians Rob Beckett and Romesh Ranganathan. Two shows lead the way in nominations this year, with Ben Whishaw‘s “This is Going to Hurt” and Martin Freeman‘s “The Responder” each receiving six nominations.
Like the Emmys, the BAFTAs split their TV awards into two parts — the main ceremony and an earlier celebration devoted to celebrating the creative arts.

Ted Lasso may have as many Emmys as there are AFC Richmond players in a match, but almost four years into the life of Apple TV+, it’s far from the only reason to visit the streamer. Since its launch in 2019, Apple has paid out for starry collaborations with big names in Hollywood both behind and in front of the camera, many of which have now – creatively at least – paid off.
It hasn’t been a straight ascent, but by sticking with the majority of their original shows over multiple season renewals rather than the slash ‘n’ burn approach elsewhere, Apple TV+ has established a healthy slate of acclaimed originals. There’s weird horror Servant, hard sci-fi Foundation, eerie drama Severance, spy thriller Slow Horses, plus real-life dramatisations, and a lot of very decent comedy. We pick our recommendations below.

Sharon Horgan could be set to follow in the footsteps of another acclaimed multi-hyphenate, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, by earning Emmy bids for both writing and starring in a beloved show. While Waller-Bridge achieved that feat for her comedy “Fleabag,” Horgan could do it for her Apple TV+ drama “Bad Sisters.” Horgan co-created, starred in, and wrote several episodes of this hit show, which follows the five Garvey sisters who plot to murder John Paul (Claes Bang), the abusive husband of Anne-Marie Duff‘s Grace Garvey.
The show flashes between two timelines — one in which the sisters try to kill John Paul and one in which a pair of insurance investigators (Brian Gleeson‘s Thomas and Daryl McCormack‘s Matthew) try to prove the sisters’ involvement in John Paul’s death to save their own business.
Horgan teamed up with “New Girl” scribes Brett Baer and Dave Finkel to adapt the hit Belgian show “Clan.

“Bad Sisters” doesn’t have a good Rotten Tomatoes score, it has a perfect one. The Apple TV+ drama series merits a jaw-dropping 100% on this site that aggregates reviews.
Created by Sharon Horgan, Dave Finkel, and Brett Baer, “Bad Sisters” follows the five Garvey sisters (led by Horgan’s eldest sister Eva) as they try to kill Claes Bang‘s John Paul, the abusive husband of Grace Garvey (Anne-Marie Duff). The action moves between two timelines. The first follows the sisters plotting John Paul’s murder while the second shows two insurance agents (Brian Gleeson‘s Thomas and Daryl McCormack‘s Matthew) trying to prove that the sisters were involved in John Paul’s death in a desperate attempt to save their business.
The juxtaposing timelines make for a whip-smart drama full of pitch-black comedy and pitch-perfect performances. It’s obvious why the show has received that perfect Rotten Tomatoes score.

Evil Dead Rise actress Nell Fisher and Bad Sisters actor Michael Smiley are set to join Elijah Wood in Bookworm, a new family adventure comedy from New Zealand director Ant Timpson (Come to Daddy).
Fisher will play Mildred, a 12-year-old girl whose life is turned upside down when her estranged, washed-up American magician father, Strawn Wise (Wood), comes to look after her. Hoping to bond with the tween, Strawn takes Mildred on an ill-advised camping trip into the rugged New Zealand wilderness in a quest to find the mythological beast known as the Canterbury Panther, named after the region on New Zealand’s South Island.
The project will reteam Wood with Come to Daddy director Timpson and will see the Lord of the Rings actor return to New Zealand to shoot.

The Apple TV+ rookie series “Bad Sisters” is garnering a lot of traction at this year’s Emmys. Creator and star Sharon Horgan ranks in our top tier of Best Drama Actress contenders while featured players Anne-Marie Duff and Sarah Greene are in the conversation for Drama Supporting actress, as is the show itself.
One person who deserves more attention thrust upon them is the show’s villain — Claes Bang. The Danish actor, who shot to prominence with his definitive, delicious take on the titular character in Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat‘s “Dracula,” played Jean-Paul Williams — husband to Duff’s Grace and colleague to Horgan’s Eva. Jean-Paul is a controlling, abusive character who tries to dominate the lives of his wife and daughter. It’s his behavior that leads Eva and the rest of the Garvey sisters to plot to kill him.
As the hissable foil to the five Garvey sisters,...
