This year's BAFTA nominations have just been revealed and Daran Little's drama The Road to Coronation Street has been nominated for Single Drama. It also has two nominations in the Supporting Actress category for Jessie Wallace and Lynda Baron who played Pat Phoenix and Violet Carson. This is the first nomination for both actresses. Lynda Baron’s comes after over 45 years in the industry.
The nominations are very well deserved and let's hope they get their awards when the Philips British Academy Television Awards, hosted by Graham Norton, are broadcast on BBC 1 on Sunday 22 May 2011.
Rather ironic that the woman best known for Eastenders gets her first nomination playing a Coronation Street related part
