After a BAFTA!

[Barrychuckle]

As we know LOTSW featured many talented actors. I can think of 4 who were BAFTA winners off the top of my head but I'm sure there are many more.

Can you think of any who featured in the series? One per post please

Sir Norman Wisdom must have won one surely , fellowship possibly.

Liz Smith

Yes surprisingly his BAFTA was from 1953 as most promising newcomer!

 

[Barrychuckle]

None of the 4 I can think of have been mentioned yet

And before anyone asks, the actress who payed Babs doesn't have a BAFTA!

Jean Alexander had one for best actress in 1988 for her part as Hilda Ogden in Coronation Street.

 

[Roger]

John Cleese for A Fish Called Wanda.

 

[Amos Hames 2]

Thora Hird ?

 

[wstol]

Ron Moody?

Thora Hird ?

Yes she has 2 BAFTA's the only person (I think) in the series with 2.

 

[Barrychuckle]

Ron Moody?

Yes unsurprisingly he won his for Oliver!

Jean is one of only 2 actors ever to win a BAFTA for a soap, bonus points if you can guess the other!? (clue different soap)

 

[Roger]

Ron Moody?

Yes unsurprisingly he won his for Oliver!

Did he win or was he just nominated?

 

[Barrychuckle]

Did he win or was he just nominated?

You're right he was only a nominee when I checked, I was convinced he'd won one for Oliver! He certainly should have won it IMHO!

June Brown in Eastenders maybe or Barbara Windsor

Right with the first answer, I think BW won her's for her performance in Carry On Camping

 

[Roger]

Not actors but I think both Roy Clarke and Alan Bell won BAFTAs.

She does of sorts, Babs is just a Bloody Awful Flat and Tuneless Article
