BAFTA Award for Best Editing


The BAFTA Award for Best Editing is a film award presented by the British Academy of Film and Television Arts at the annual British Academy Film Awards, to recognize a film editor who has delivered outstanding editing in a film.
BAFTA is a British organisation that hosts annual awards shows for film, television, and video games. Since 1966, selected editors have been awarded with the BAFTA award for Best Editing at an annual ceremony. Traditionally, four films were nominated each year until 2000, when the Academy expanded the annual number of nominees to five. The predetermined limit was exceeded twice: in 1992, when, due to a tie in the vote, there were five nominees, and in 2008, when there were six nominees.
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.
The film-voting members of the Academy select the five nominated films in each category; only the principal editor for each film are named, which excludes additional editors, supervising editors, etc. The actual winner of Best Editing is selected by "Chapter Voting"; only Academy members who are identified as members of the Editing Chapter vote on the winner.
