BAFTA TV Awards viewers admit they were left cringing over 'unfunny' gags as presenters read out scripted jokes and declare 'I can't watch it!'
The TV BAFTAs recognised the great and good of the television industry in a star-studded ceremony at the Royal Festival Hall on Sunday evening.
Accepting the gong from Russell Tovey and Daniel Mays, producer Patrick Spencer said: 'We could only film this because Polly Hill at ITV saved us from getting cancelled and this story only had the impact it did because the people who watched it stood up as one and demanded action with such rage, that the government had no choice but to respond. Urging Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer's Labour government to rush through arranged compensation payments for affected former postal employees, ITV boss Kevin Lygo said: 'Hurry up and pay these people what they are due.' The night began with Jessica Gunning collecting the award for Best Actress after winning accolades for her portrayal of crazed stalker Martha in Richard Gatt's hugely successful Netflix drama Baby Reindeer.
