Great Company with Jamie Laing · DANIEL MAYS: I've Worked with Hollywood’s Biggest Stars But I Still Sometimes Feel Like an Imposter · 2 Jun 2026 podcast

And so, but it's like, no one tells you the sort of pressure and hype that goes around it.

Like the, the big days coming and like now it's like six nominations.

I think back then it was like four.

So I was in it.

I was up against Tom Hollander and John Lithgow.

Um,

someone else from the crown.

It was Jared Harris.

So John Lithgow and Jared Harris from the crown and, uh, Tom Hollander for night manager, like three incredible actors.

And so you go again, that little old me, like, but here's the thing.

it's just nerve-wracking awards isn't it no one can't explains that to you so you're sitting there and then like but and then i always remember it was like um the tickets came through and i go oh look here's the tickets for the festival festival hall and you go and you look at it right and i was like there with my wife i've got my plus one and it's like we're on the end of the row and you go you go ella i think we're in here

So you're like that, you know what I mean?

You think, okay, and you get there and it's all like hot and you do the red carpet and everything like that.

And you think, I was being like, I'm a supporting actor category.

So normally they're like early on.

So get it out of the way, get the BAFTA and then just sit back and chill.

But it was right towards the end with all the main acting awards.

And when they... The lovely Tom Hollander won it and he was brilliant in that role and he thoroughly deserved it.

But when they say someone else's name, it's like an instantaneous, like simultaneous...

like utter relief that it's over and crushing disappointment at the same time it's an absolute head fuck and there's a camera pointing at you right at that moment you're like where do i look like what and then you just have to go well done love you and you have to do this okay
