BAFTA to Honor Matthew Perry at TV Awards Following Film Awards Omission Backlash

The decision comes after fans expressed disappointment over Perry's absence from the In Memoriam segment at the Film Awards.

BAFTA will honor Matthew Perry at its Television Awards in May 2024, following backlash over his omission from the In Memoriam segment at the Film Awards.
Perry, known for his role as Chandler Bing in 'Friends,' also appeared in films like 'Fools Rush In' and 'The Whole Nine Yards.'
Fans expressed disappointment on social media, with some calling the omission 'shockingly bad' and a 'poor decision.'
BAFTA responded to the backlash by confirming Perry will be remembered at the TV Awards and on their website's In Memoriam section.
Perry passed away in October 2023 at age 54, with his death attributed to the acute effects of ketamine.
