Both Slow Horses and Silo have been well received by viewers with the former already offering multiple seasons for viewers to sink their teeth into. While Silo only has a single season available right now, more are on the way - the show has already been announced to have a further three seasons on the way with the final two set to be filmed back-to-back, likely to allow for a quicker release.

Slow Horses is a surprisingly funny show about a team of British intelligence agents who find themselves at what has become a dumping ground for MI5 agents after career-ending mistakes on the job. It stars Gary Oldman among others and is based on the popular books of the same name. The first three seasons of Slow Horses are available to watch currently.

Silo is based on the bestseller book Wool, and stars Rebecca Furguson and others. It's a story about the last 10,000 people on the planet as they live in a mile-deep home in an attempt to avoid the inhospitable surface. The story of Juliette, an engineer whose life takes a surprising turn, turns into a mystery and thriller in equal measure. The first season of Silo is now available to watch.

Alongside the wins, there were also a number of nominations for the BAFTA Television Awards with Slow Horses, The Enfield Poltergeist, and Hannah Waddingham: Home For Christmas all involved. The winner will be announced on Sunday, May 12.

Starting with Slow Horses, the popular spy thriller has been nominated for Best Drama Series and Best Supporting Actor (Jack Lowden) while The Enfield Poltergeist is up for a win in the Specialist Factual category. Finally, Hannah Waddingham: Home for Christmas was also nominated, this time in the Entertainment category.
