I recently made my predictions for the Emmy’s and we now have the results, so here I will look at what I got right, and what I surprises occurred.
The big takeaways of the night for me were Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s incredibly deserved wins for Fleabag and most of all, the incredible Jodie Comer winning best actress in a drama for her role as Villanelle in Killing Eve was a great surprise and totally deserved.
Overall, in my predictions I got 14 correct out of 27, and from what I wanted to win, there was 9 out of 27. Thanks for following along with thus blog and over the coming months I will have plenty of coverage of the movie awards race, all the way up to the Academy Awards.
