Live from the Awards

30 November 08

Four weeks after the nominations were announced the BAFTA web team is waiting expectantly in the Awards Press Room.

BAFTA / Richard KendalPresenter Keith Chegwin and The Saturdays are rehearsing onstage and there are lots of people running around adding the last minute touches before guests start arriving on the red carpet.

I’ll be in the Press Room with the website team all night uploading pics from the red carpet as well as posting the winners online as soon as the ceremony finishes.

I always start to get nervous at this point but I can’t imagine what it’s like for our four Break Through talent nominees. Their blogs here have given us a real insight into how it feels to be a first-time BAFTA nominee – from finding out the news to deciding what to wear.

I’ve been wanting to let them know who’s won but the first I’ll know myself is when the winner makes his way backstage to meet the waiting press.

Good luck to all – Josh, Akin, Eliot and Brad.

Rob Cawston, Sunday 30 November
