As announced earlier this week, this year’s ceremony will feature a special dance theatre performance of Rambert’s Peaky Blinders: The Redemption of Thomas Shelby, as well as an exclusive music performance from chart-topping British singer Ella Eyre. The Rambert production, which debuted in 2022 and has toured the UK, was adapted for the stage by Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight and co-created by Benoit Swan Pouffer. The production follows patriarch Thomas Shelby – originally played by BAFTA-winning actor Cillian Murphy in the BBC drama Peaky Blinders – and the Shelby family in post-war industrial Birmingham. This year’s BAFTA TV nominees and guests will also see Ella Eyre perform her new single ‘Ain’t No Love That Blind’ on stage for the first time.
For audiences outside of the UK, the awards will also be broadcast in North American on Britbox for the first time, as well as being simulcast on Britbox in Canada, South Africa, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, and Norway. Australian audiences will be able to view on BritBox on-demand. The ceremony can be viewed by New Zealand audiences on BBC Studios ANZ, and in 24 countries across Africa and the Middle East on AlThaqafeya and MBC Channels.
