If it’s a television awards show happening in 2025 or 2026, it’s going to be dominated by Netflix smash hit “Adolescence.” The four-episode limited series capped off its heralded run (after collecting nine Emmys, amongst a slew of other wins) with a record-breaking four wins at Sunday evening’s BAFTA TV Awards.
The limited series walked away with wins for Best Limited Drama, Leading Actor for Stephen Graham, Supporting Actor for Owen Cooper, and Supporting Actress for Christine Tremarco. Earlier this season, it won two BAFTA TV Craft awards.
Cooper’s win in particular places him in rarefied territory: the young British breakout already won the Emmy, the Actor Award, the Critics’ Choice Award, and the Golden Globe Award for his work as young Jamie Miller, making history as the youngest actor ever to win the four major television acting awards for a single performance and to achieve this feat for just one season of television. (And, ahem, an IndieWire Honor.) Adding a BAFTA into the mix? Unheard of.
With its four wins, the Jack Thorne- and Graham-created series beat out previous record-holders like “Killing Eve” and “Happy Valley,” which had previously won three awards apiece.
