Awards season is upon us with the 70th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards taking place last night. If you’re curious to find out who won, who got snubbed, or why Teddy Perkins was sitting in Donald Glover’s seat, we have the answers to two of those questions. If you’ve not seen Atlanta season two, then I strongly recommend you don’t click on the link or Google Teddy Perkins. I realise that saying don’t do something will likely have the opposite effect, but I’ve done my bit to prevent spoilers.
Will The Handmaid’s Tale repeat its awards domination from last year? Can Mrs Maisel live up to her name and sweep the board? Stranger Things, This Is Us, Westworld, and Game of Thrones are also in the running, so without further delay here’s the list of winners in the major categories.
