Welcome to the BAFTA TV Awards 2024!
Welcome to the BAFTA TV Awards 2024! My name is Emmy, I'm the TV Editor at HELLO! and I'll be your host for the evening (well, I'll be sharing lots of updates with you on here anyway).
From gorgeous red carpet looks to the very deserving (I'm sure) winners of the night, join me as I follow the evening of glitz and glamour, and I'll be sure to keep you posted with all of the winners, speeches, red carpet looks and of course, any juicy bits of gossip.
My Twitter username is @emmyfg so tweet me your thoughts so I can share them on here, and let's do this!
Very early, isn't it?
It's odd to think that somewhere in London everyone is decked in full glamour and about to have the evening of their lives while the kids outside my flat are still driving their parents (and me) crazy!
To be fair, the show doesn't kick off on ITV until 7 pm - here are all the details on how to watch!
It's called FASHUN
One of my favourite things about award ceremonies is, of course, the fashion! This red carpet has been especially gorgeous, with so many beautiful looks. Check them out...
READ: BAFTA Beauties! Best dressed from red carpet 2024 - Claudia Winkleman, Hannah Waddingham and more
Which one is your fave look? I am obsessed with Claudia Winkleman's all-white pantsuit game, though how beautiful and happy does Emily Atack look with her baby bump?!
As a redhead...
Sorry but as a fellow ginger I feel it's only right to give a special mention to Poldark star Eleanor Tomlinson's AMAZING look. How gorgeous is she?
She's had a VERY busy couple of years, having starred in One Day, The Couple Next Door, The Outlaws and A Small Light - which one was your favourite?
Joe Lycett or Henry VIII?
Either way, a fabulous look. Hopefully, he won't be feeling too 'ruff' tomorrow after the celebrations...
Look, I've been in the sun all day.
A little reminder of the nominees
Before I get too into far into thinking I'm the latest recruit in the Fashion Police, here is a reminder of the nominations tonight:

I'll be announcing all of the winners here and most definitely won't be sharing my opinions on whether they should have won or not (we'll see).
Anyway, here's Lorraine looking spectacular!
Can't forget the Memorable Moment Award!

Nick Mohammed has spilled the beans to us about working with Orlando Bloom - who was visited by his wife Katy Perry (and their bambino) on the set of their new movie!
BAFTA kicks off on BBC
At last! I was getting my news by carrier pigeon but now the BAFTA TV Awards are finally on our telly! How good are Rob and Romesh as presenters? I really enjoyed their advice to the winners ("Producers, if you must come up to the stage please do, but stand in the back and let the famous people speak"). It's giving Ricky Gervais.

What is Class Act about?
I can't stop thinking about Class Act winning Best International Show - so if, like me, you haven't really heard of it, here's what it's all about:
"A relentlessly ambitious working-class man becomes one of France's most controversial public figures in this fictionalized biopic about Bernard Tapie."
Lorraine Kelly accepts special award - and talks being a grandma soon!
Aww, you've got to love Lorraine Kelly! The star won the special award tonight and called it an "amazing" honour, especially after receiving a standing ovation!
She continued: "I never ever take it for granted that so many people trust me with their stories... I would just say don't pull up the ladder... I just want everyone to have the best opportunities."
