The BAFTA Television and Television Craft Awards nominees have been announced, with Sky Atlantic's miniseries Chernobyl the clear frontrunner with 14 nominations.

The critically acclaimed series dramatises the nuclear disaster at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in 1986, and was one nomination shy of becoming the most nominated TV show in the history of the awards. As it is, it matches the record set by Killing Eve last year.

Netflix's royal biopic The Crown has seven nominations, while the Emmy-winning Fleabag series two and Giri/Haji are both nominated for six awards apiece.

The BAFTA TV Awards 2020 ceremony will be remotely presented by comedian Richard Ayoade, with winners announced on 31st July in a televised ceremony over on BBC One. Read on for the full list of nominees.
