Ahead of this Sunday’s awards ceremony, new analysis* of the BAFTA awards database by business psychology firm, Pearn Kandola, has revealed that in eleven of its key award categories, 94 per cent of all BAFTA film award nominees have been white. Only five BAME (Black and minority ethnic) males have ever been nominated for the coveted ‘Best Leading Actor’ award, and just six BAME females for ‘Best Leading Actress’.
