Emmys 2021: Ted Lasso and The Crown triumph while no actors of colour win

The Guardian says the 73rd Emmy awards mostly stuck to the predicted script on Sunday, celebrating favourites Ted Lasso, The Queen’s Gambit, and The Crown, in an awards-stuffed return to a (mostly) normal ceremony that celebrated diversity yet handed all the acting awards to white performers.

It was a big night for Brits with The Crown, Netflix’s lavish drama on the royal family, entering the evening tied with The Mandalorian for the most nominations with 24, and leaving with a clean sweep of the drama categories, including acting wins for Olivia Colman (as Queen Elizabeth II), Josh O’Connor (as Prince Charles), Gillian Anderson (as Margaret Thatcher) and Tobias Menzies (as the late Prince Philip).
