This award's season has flown by with only two weeks till the Oscars, where as today on the other side of the Atlantic, the British Academy of Film & Television Arts and Sciences Awards are taking place. While the ceremony that we will see tonight on BBC America is pre-recorded from this afternoon, I have refrained from looking any of the winners up to be surprised tonight on the televised event at 8/7c. The BAFTAS have a tendency to lean more so towards populist fare, and the case isn't always that British films are the big winners, but that will be the case this year, I think. So here's my predictions (and for a full list of nominees, click here):

Best Director - Tom Hooper, The King's Speech
Best Actor - Colin Firth, The King's Speech
