The limited series “Coming of Age” has garnered 12 BAFTA TV Award nominations, honoring the finest achievements in British television over the past year.
Previously a heavy hitter at the Emmys, Golden Globes, and Critics Choice Awards, the drama premiered on Netflix in March 2025. The gripping plot centers on a 13-year-old boy named Cooper, who finds himself in custody following the suspicious death of a classmate. His father (portrayed by Stephen Graham), along with social services and investigators, must untangle a web of secrets to uncover what truly happened.
