Best Actress in a Supporting Role is a British Academy Film Award presented annually by the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) to recognize an actress who has delivered an outstanding supporting performance in a film.
The British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA), is a British organisation that hosts annual awards shows for film, television, children's film and television, and interactive media. Since 1968, selected actresses have been awarded with the BAFTA award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role at an annual ceremony.
In the following lists, the titles and names in bold with a gold background are the winners and recipients respectively; those not in bold are the nominees. The years given are those in which the films under consideration were released, not the year of the ceremony, which always takes place the following year.
History
The Best Supporting Actress award has been presented a total of 53 times to 52 different actresses. No award was given out in this category in 1980, when no actors, male or female, were nominated for supporting roles. In addition, the award was replaced with a gender-neutral category for Best Supporting Artist, allotted for the year 1981 only, with all four nominees that year being male. The first winner was Billie Whitelaw for her roles in Charlie Bubbles and Twisted Nerve. The most recent winner is Da'Vine Joy Randolph for her role in The Holdovers. The record for most wins is three, held by Judi Dench. Kate Winslet has won two times, while each other recipient has only won once in this category. Dench also holds the record for most nominations, with nine. At the 36th BAFTA Film Awards, Rohini Hattangadi and Maureen Stapleton received the same number of votes and thus both shared the award in this category's only tie.
