Michael Samuels revealed in an interview that he was completely surprised by the Bafta for Best Drama Serial.

"There had been rumours circulating that it had been one of the other shows that had won in our category," he says. "We all had convinced ourselves that we weren't going to win, which was great because I didn't have to worry about learning a speech. So it was such a shock when we won, but obviously a fantastic shock."

Be sure to catch the Bafta TV Awards tonight.  Any Human Heart is nominated for Best Drama Serial and Jim Broadbent is nominated for Leadingt Actor. 

The Guardian has some put up some photos of some of the actors that are nominated.  In it you can see Jim Broadbent's photo and caption.

... especially when it’s to appear in dramas such as Any Human Heart, which has won him a nomination for best leading actor. “It was beautifully written; I liked the fact that William Boyd adapted it himself, even though he had to massacre his book to get it on screen. It always has to be about the script, always the story”
