The 2012 TWNH Awards



These awards look back at the best (& worst) of TV drama from 2012, specifically focussing on the dreaded That Would Never Happen (TWNH) moments.  See last year's awards here.

Best in show (actor) - Ben Cumberbatch for Parade's End

Best in show (actress) - Karla Crome for Murder

Worst in show (actor) - David Tennant for True Love (sorry David!) closely followed by Andrew Scott for his OTT Moriarty in Sherlock AND his muttering cop in Blackout, which very nearly made it in the 'Biggest TWNH' category too.

Worst in show (actress) - Melissa George for Hunted

It was good until... - Inside Men for throwing all our good will away with a terrible last 15 minutes

Biggest TWNH - A toss up between the whole of the second series of Homeland and The Bletchley Circle

Best show - Line of Duty, though Murder, The Hollow Crown, some episodes of Accused and Prisoners' Wives were good too

Drama most outstaying its welcome - Downton Abbey  If it's true that there's to be a re-boot/alternative/prequel, it says it all about lowest-common-demoninator viewing.
