Hat Tip: The Rap Sheet via It's a Crime! [Or a Mystery...]
The book part of the awards look like a good list for groups, especially since I haven't heard of or read most of the authors. For the
ReplyDeleteTV series best actor, I say, give an award to all of them. How does one differentiate between, Alun Armstrong, Phil Davies or Benedict? Not possible. All the actors listed for Best and supporting are terrific.
There is a DCI Banks and it isn't available in US? Horrors!
