Netflix’s limited series Adolescence made history at the 2026 BAFTA Television Awards 2026 becoming the most awarded television production in the award’s history.

The 2026 British Academy of Film and Television Arts was held at the iconic Royal Festival Hall in London on Sunday, and was hosted by Greg Davies, with performances from Cat Burns and AURORA.

Adolescence was the star of the night, walking away with four major awards, including Best Leading Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress and Best Limited Drama after leading the nominations with 11 nods.

Following behind, The Celebrity Traitors picked up two awards from five nominations, while LOL: Last One Laughing UK also secured two wins on the night. Meanwhile, Code of Silence claimed the Best Drama Series award.

Apple TV+ also enjoyed a strong outing after picking up key wins through The Studio and Slow Horses, while Disney+, despite entering the night with the highest number of nominations, managed only one victory through A Thousand Blows.

It was, however, a disappointing night for Max and Paramount+ as neither platform won any awards.

Other nominees that failed to secure wins on the night included reality series Squid Game: The Challenge, political drama The Diplomat and fantasy series The Witcher.
