OK Thomas...the BAFTAs. I'm thankful I got to watch the show this year. And I agree that the puppy thing was not a great choice. But can you explain the Nick Mohammed to me? I kept thinking this must a "British" thing...or maybe he was playing a "well-loved" character I wasn't familiar with. And it just seemed to go on and on... I look forward to getting the scoop. Also: have you ever listed your fav pictures that you'd put up for an Oscar? Thanks! Mark
You watched it? Man, even I didn't watch it — I just watch the highlights 😂
I have no idea what Nick Mohamed was doing, and I've never heard of his character 'Mr. Swallow' which he has apparently played for over a decade. I watched the sketch and I didn't get it either... unfortunately we seem to be dumbing down the comedy at these awards shows.
As for the Oscars, I don't think I have made a list, but if I did it would be a very long list. I have made my own predictions for the major categories in previous years, but I usually get them wrong 😂
I'm glad to see it wasn't just me! Also...the award season gets soooo long. And by the time the Oscars roll around, it feels like you know who's gonna win...especially if you watch all the shows...like I try to do (for some reason). I hope for some surprises...but anticipate none.
Ha, no not at all — I think a lot of people were BAFT!
Also, I agree with awards season, but I think you guys 'see' more of them. We only seem to care about the BAFTAs, the Oscars and the Globes (at a push).

There is a glimmer of hope though, as we're not the only ones! https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/news/mr-swallow-nick-mohammed-bafta-2024-b2498368.html
