2026 BAFTAs — Adolescence Steals the Show
The 2026 ceremony was arguably Netflix’s finest hour on the TV side. Adolescence became the first Netflix series to win four BAFTAs at the same ceremony, taking home Supporting Actor (Owen Cooper, who made history as the youngest ever winner of the award), Supporting Actress (Christine Tremarco), Leading Actor (Stephen Graham), and Limited Drama Series.
Adolescence is a devastating limited series about a 13-year-old boy accused of murdering a female classmate — told in four single-take episodes, each set on the same day across different time frames. Raw, relentless, and unmissable.
On the documentary front, Grenfell: Uncovered made history as the first Netflix documentary to win under the Single Documentary category. On the film side, Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein adaptation claimed three BAFTAs — Costume Design, Make Up & Hair, and Production Design. whats-on-netflixwhats-on-netflix
