Ok this is only a small blog I thought I would do before the live show tonight. Well let’s start, the British Academy Of British Film and Television Arts was founded in 1947 and is hosted every year in London. It has been referred as the British Academy Awards even though it also recognizes video games. Some of the best actors and directors have received a gold face BAFTA such as Daniel Day Lewis (2008 for ‘There Will Be Blood’). This year is an amazing year so really its not a big deal if someone wins over others but It will be interesting.
This is not who I want to win but who I think deserves it. If there is two coloured in it is because I couldn’t choose which one. The time of writing this is 05.09pm Sunday 08th February. The BAFTA’s are on BBC 2 at 8pm and BBC 1 at 9pm.

With the ones I have missed out it was because I can’t decide which one due to either not seeing the films or I wanted more then one.
After the show I will write a second blog writing about who won and my thoughts on it. Enjoy the show tonight and if this goes down well I will do another one for the Academy Awards 09.
