Together, the fifth season of “Call the Midwife”; “Poldark” season two; and the first season of the epic Royal family drama, “Victoria,” have all been nominated in the brand new Period Drama category.

Continuing its wave of success, “EastEnders” is recognized in the Serial Drama category, while cast members Lacey Turner (Serial Drama Performance) and Tilly Keeper (Newcomer) are also up for trophies.

After a 13+ year hiatus, the return of “Cold Feet” struck a positive nerve with British audiences during the run of the series’ sixth season. So much so, the James Nebitt-led show is nominated for the top Drama prize.
