SHERLOCK GAINS THREE BAFTA TV NOMINATIONS
The British Academy Film and Television Awards have unveiled the final list of nominations for the 2012 BAFTA Television Awards, due to be presented on Sunday May 27 2012.
Sherlock has gained three nominations in acting categories.
Benedict Cumberbatch – Best Actor
Martin Freeman – Best Supporting Actor
Andrew Scott – Best Supporting Actor
Martin Freeman and Andrew Scott face off in the Best Supporting Actor category. This is Andrew’s first BAFTA Nomination. Due to changes in the rules for the 2012 award, the Best Drama award – which Sherlock won in 2011 – now requires a minimum of five new episodes in a series to be eligible. Sherlock was thus eligible for the Mini-Series category, a suitably packed field, and sadly wasn’t nominated.
You can see the full list of nominations for the 2012 BAFTA Television Awards HERE.
This makes Sherlock’s nomination in the YouTube Audience Award all the more important. This Award is also presented on Sunday May 27 2012, and with Martin and Andrew facing each other in the same category Sherlock can only win a possible three awards from four nominations. If you are in the UK, and haven’t voted for Sherlock across as many computers and mobile devices as you can, head over to the BAFTA YouTube Channel to vote NOW.
HOW COULD THEY NOT NOMINATE SHERLOCK, WHAT A STUPID RULE
WHAT IS THIS MOCKERY
PPL FROM THE UK, VOTE FOR YOUTUBE AUDIENCE AWARD, OR IF A CRAPPY SHOW LIKE ESSEX WINS AGAIN, MORIARTY WILL MAKE US ALL INTO SHOES, OKAY
Oh and Andrew/Martin/Benny, congrats for the nominations, dearies ^

“It’s imperative that you meet.” The strange Doctor murmured quietly.
John looked up at the adult with a frown, “I-Imperative?”
“Important. Necessary.” The older clarified.
“Important to who?!” John exclaimed; the entire scenario was a bit much for the boy to grasp.
The quirky doctor tilted his head. “The future, of course.” He stated, like it was a simple fact. “It’s crucial that you, and Mister Holmes here, meet now. Your bond needs to be strong. You need to be prepared to die for one another.” He explained gently.“You can’t know that. Y-You can’t make us believe something so silly, right Sherlock?” John scoffed, looking toward his new best friend.
But Sherlock’s eyes and face were not perked into the condescending gaze and sly grin that he’d come to know so well. No, his friend’s face was sad; troubled, as he stared right into John’s eyes.
“…Sherlock?” John spoke again, very tentatively. “You… you don’t actually believe this nutter, do you?” He asked.The Doctor turned to look at the dark haired boy, who seemed entirely focused on little John Watson. “You see it, don’t you Sherlock? His importance?”
Sherlock didn’t answer. His eyes remained fixed on John.+ inspired by martinfreemans’ childhood series
