The British television series “Happy Valley,” “Marvellous,” “The Missing” and “Line of Duty” led all TV shows in nominations for the British Academy of Film and Television Arts’ House of Fraser British Academy Television Awards, which were announced on Wednesday in London.
The four shows each received three nominations. Drama acting nods went to Benedict Cumberbatch for “Sherlock,” Toby Jones for “Marvellous,” James Nesbitt and Ken Stott for “The Missing,” Keeley Hawes and Vicky McClure for “Line of Duty” and Stephen Rea for “The Honourable Woman,” among others.
In the comedy acting categories, nominees included Olivia Colman and Tom Hollander for “Rev.,” Tasmin Greig for “Episodes,” Hugh Bonneville for “W1A” and Matt Berry for “Toast of London.”
New “Late Late Show” host James Corden was nominated in the scripted comedy category for “The Wrong Mans.”

A few of the nominated shows, including “Sherlock,” “The Missing” and “Episodes,” are also eligible for Emmys this year.
In the International category, the nominees were four U.S. programs: CBS’ “The Good Wife,” HBO’s “True Detective” and a pair of series from Netflix, “House of Cards” and “Orange is the New Black.”
The BAFTA ceremony will take place on May 10 at the Theatre Royal in Drury Lane, London. The British Academy Television Craft Awards will take place on April 26.
