The hit Netflix series landed noms for stars Stephen Graham, Erin Doherty, breakout Owen Cooper, Ashley Walters and Christine Tremarco, along with picking one up for Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series.

Starring Graham, Doherty and Cooper, the show was shot in a one-take style and charted the journey of a young boy (Cooper) and his family after he is charged with killing a teenage girl. The show created by Thorne and Graham sparked a global conversation over the impact of social media and masculinity on teenage boys. In the UK, it has become required watching for school children.
Produced by Brad Pitt's Plan B, Warp Films and Matriarch Productions, Adolescence was always likely to perform well at awards season. Its most direct recent British comparator is Baby Reindeer, also for Netflix, which last year secured 11 Emmy noms, winning six including lead Richard Gadd and supporting actresses Jessica Gunning and Nava Mau.

According to Netflix, Adolescence Season 1 has been watched a whopping 142.6 million times, placing it second on the streamer's all-time top 10 list behind Wednesday. Plan B bosses Dede Gardner and Jeremy Kleiner recently told us they are in early talks to make what could become a second season.
British shows like The Crown and Fleabag have traditionally performed well at the Emmys, leading to something of a mini Brit invasion over the past decade or so. Adolescence could bring that home at the ceremony in September. Other British nominees this year include Gary Oldman for Slow Horses.

Legacy of Nevada skating ring lives on in Bolton today
On a roll! That's local roller-skaters who proved they had the right moves to be crowned British Champions! Red Rose Roller Skating Club, based in Turton and Smithills, travelled to Great Yarmouth to compete in the Dance British Championships. Paula Callaghan, 66, coach and founder of the club, said: "We didn't have anyone come below eighth place! "I wasn't surprised – because they work so hard and they've been working and working and working every single day. "But you never know what's going to happen on the day of the championship – they got so many good compliments from the officials too!" Toby Halpin-Foden, 16, and Jemima Corser, 16, came home with the top prize – placing number one in the Youth Couples category.

The summer heat isn't letting up — and neither is your watchlist. With new shows premiering on Netflix, Peacock and other streaming services, now's the perfect time to cool off inside with something worth bingeing. This week's TV lineup delivers a little bit of everything. Jason Momoa goes full warrior mode in the sweeping historical saga "Chief of War," while "Twisted Metal" season 2 brings back post-apocalyptic mayhem. For reality fans, "Perfect Match" returns with its most drama-inducing cast yet, including contestants from outside the Netflix bubble. Here are our top picks for new TV shows to watch this week. Stand-up comedian Leanne Morgan turns real-life heartbreak into sitcom gold in a new comedy based on her hit Netflix special, 'I'm Every Woman,' and co-created by Chuck Lorre. It's about picking up the pieces — while experiencing a hot flash or two — after your husband of 33 years leaves you. Morgan plays a grandmother suddenly thrust back into the dating pool. She leans on her loud, loving family, including sister Carol (Kristen Johnston), as she discovers it's never too late for a fresh start. All 16 episodes premiere Thursday, July 31 at 3 a.m. ET on Netflix 'The Sandman' season 2 aired its series finale last week, but this bonus 12th episode is a treat for fans that turns the spotlight on Death (Kirby Howell-Baptiste). It's adapted from Neil Gaiman's 1993 comic about the one day every hundred years when Death walks the world as a mortal. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Her companion this time around is Sexton (Colin Morgan), a suicidal teen who's not exactly thrilled to be alive. Episode premieres Thursday, July 31 at 3 a.m. ET on Netflix The stakes are even bloodier on this post-apocalyptic action comedy. John Doe (Anthony Mackie) and Quiet (Stephanie Beatriz) are diving headfirst into Calypso's no-mercy demolition derby, where one wish is up for grabs … if they can outdrive a bunch of lunatics. Cars will burn, clowns will kill and Anthony Carrigan will be smirking as the world goes up in flames. Dollface and Mr. Grimm crash back in for more mayhem, plus there's a scrappy kid in the mix. Episodes 1-3 premiere Thursday, July 31 at 3 a.m. ET on Peacock Jason Momoa goes full warrior-poet in this gritty, sweeping historical epic set during Hawai'i's fight for unification in the late 1700s. He plays Ka'iana, a high-ranking chief who returns home and gets swept into the brutal campaign to unite the islands. But soon, he begins to question what he's actually fighting for. Momoa co-created the series with Thomas Pa'a Sibbett and directed the finale episode. The Polynesian cast includes Cliff Curtis, Temuera Morrison, and newcomer Kaina Makua. Episodes 1-2 premiere Friday, Aug. 1 at 12 a.m. ET on Apple TV Plus Netflix's messiest dating show is back, and in season 3, it's drawing the cast not just from other Netflix reality shows but from outside the streamer, too. Stars from 'The Bachelor,' 'Love Island' and 'Siesta Key' are crashing the villa alongside familiar faces from 'Love Is Blind' and 'Too Hot to Handle.' Among the newcomers are 'Bachelor' exes Clayton Echard and Rachel Recchia, so expect plenty of drama. Hosted by Nick Lachey, the season will feature wild challenges and power plays as couples vie to earn the power to break up others and bring in fresh singles. Episodes 1-6 premiere Friday, Aug. 1 at 3 a.m. ET on Netflix
