THN’s BAFTA Predictions

Bafta 2

BAFTA HQ is hard at work getting everything ready for the annual event of the British award season – the EE BAFTA’s. All of Britain and Hollywood’s acting finest will descend upon the Royal Opera House in London’s Covent Garden tonight to find out just who has won one of those lovely masks.

We at THN will be on hand during the night to bring you all of the results as they are announced, as well as bringing you news of all the red carpet arrivals – keep your eyes on our Twitter feed from around 5pm.

Whilst we might not get a say in who gets what, in the spirit of fun we’ve decided to put our predictions against fellow film site I’m With Geek. Over on the Twittefeed tonight our waring sites will go head to head to see who is more in touch with the BAFTA board, so please do join us – we need your moral support!
