Description

From the grim (but inspiring) Chernobyl to THAT proposal on Gavin and Stacey, this week's BAFTA nominations showcase a great year in telly. But have they got it right? Jim White, Brian Viner and Claudia Connell chew over this year's nominations (and the ones that got away). Plus, author Peter May on 'Lockdown', a novel about a fictional pandemic which publishers rejected for being too implausible - but which seems all too real now.
