John Boyega is nominated for his portrayal of Metropolitan Police officer Leroy Logan in the Red, White And Blue episode, while Letitia Wright and Shaun Parkes are nominated for their performances in Mangrove.

Sir Steve is also nominated for best director.

Diversity’s headline-grabbing performance on ITV’s Britain’s Got Talent is in the running to be voted best TV moment.

The Black Lives Matter-inspired routine is among six nominees for Virgin Media’s must-see moment award, which is voted for by the public.

Penelope being revealed as the mysterious Lady Whistledown in Netflix’s raunchy period drama Bridgerton, abusive husband Gray Atkins killing Chantelle in EastEnders and Luke Skywalker appearing in The Mandalorian on Disney+ also make the shortlist.

Comedian Richard Ayoade is returning to host the ceremony for a second year.
