The Bafta Awards feel a bit different this year, especially after #BaftaSoWhite around the time of the last one. In 2021 there's more representation, with Small Axe, I May Destroy You and the Defending Digga D documentary all being recognised. In today's episode De-Graft and Roshan are in conversation with Small Axe director, Steve McQueen, Tiana Major9 (who features on the Small Axe soundtrack), and Dennis Bovell, the man behind Lovers Rock.
