Baftas 2018 Nominees: 'The Shape Of Water' And 'Darkest Hour' Lead Pack

The 2018 Bafta nominations have been announced, ahead of next month’s ceremony.

‘The Shape of Water’ received the most nominations with 12 nods, while ‘Darkest Hour’ and ‘Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri’ both receive nine nominations.

‘Blade Runner 2049’ and ‘Dunkirk’ both have eight. ‘I, Tonya’ receives five nominations, ‘Call Me by Your Name’ and ‘Phantom Thread’ have four each.

There are also three nods each for ‘Film Stars Don’t Die in Liverpool’, ‘Lady Bird’ and ‘Paddington 2’.

The nominees for one category, the Rising Star Award, were announced earlier this month and film fans can vote to decide who will triumph.

This year’s awards will be the first in 13 years without Stephen Fry at the helm, following his decision to step down from the hosting role.
