| I've included Comedy performance, partly because some people have been nominated for that AND non-comedy acting, also because it is still acting! The only comedy performance that didn't quite fit the acting mould completely are those from Bremner, Bird and Fortune but they are not playing themselves, so I kept it in. I didn't, however, include Light Entertainment Performance from 1993 and before as a number of the nominees were not for acting, e.g. Paul Merton on Have I Got News For You and I don't know alot of the programmes before then to be able to differentiate. From 1954-1968, there was only a winner for Best Actor / Best Actress but no additional nominations. I haven't included the Best Actress winner that the BAFTA website lists for 1957 because whoever it was, I'm pretty sure it wasn't Tony Hancock! |
