The shortlist for The P&O Cruises Memorable Moment Award at this year's BAFTA Television Awards has been announced, featuring six standout moments from the past year in television. The nominations include scenes from Adolescence, Big Boys, Blue Lights, Last One Laughing, The Celebrity Traitors, and What It Feels Like for a Girl.
The list was compiled by an independent jury of TV critics and presenter Josie Gibson, chaired by BAFTA Television Committee chair Hilary Rosen. The nominated moments are: Jamie snapping at the psychologist in Adolescence; Danny asking Jack 'I didn’t make it, did I?' by the sea in Big Boys; the police warned of an ambush in Blue Lights; Alan Carr winning The Celebrity Traitors; Bob Mortimer and Richard Ayoade’s speed date in Last One Laughing; and Byron leaving for Brighton and introducing herself as Paris in What It Feels Like for a Girl.
The Memorable Moment Award is the only category decided by public vote. Voting is open until 9pm on Wednesday 22 April, with the winner announced at the ceremony on Sunday 10 May 2026. Voters can also enter a prize draw to win one of ten pairs of tickets.
Hilary Rosen said: 'It’s been a huge pleasure to chair this year’s jury... The nominees reflect the creative breadth and cultural impact of best-in-class television.' Paul Ludlow of P&O Cruises added: 'Working with BAFTA enables us to champion British television and highlights the outstanding talent who create memorable television moments.'
The full list of nominations for the BAFTA Television Awards and Craft Awards will be revealed on Tuesday 24 March. The ceremony will be broadcast on BBC One and iPlayer on 10 May.
