The BAFTA (British Academy of Film and Television Arts) Awards take place tonight. London will be the home to the glitz and glamour of Hollywood for the night.
With so many amazing films on offer this year as with the previous awards shows this will be a tight competition. I am always very interested to watch the Bafta's as they can often surprise people. Many times winners at other awards shows will not have as much luck with the British, maybe we have different taste.
Below is a list of some of this years nominees.

So Paul Greengrass and Oprah Winfrey will be feeling the love as they have been snubbed at most other prominent awards shows. Emma Thompson and Tom Hanks have been nominated for a Bafta for Saving Mr Banks but have been snubbed at this years Academy Awards. I can't wait to see who will be successful tonight.
