As Snook took the podium, she joked, “I was kind of hoping I didn’t have to get up! Kieran is usually better at the speeches. Do you want to get up instead? You take it instead.” She ends on a sentimental note, adding, “This show has changed my life, and everybody in it was amazing. The cast, the crew were fantastic. This was a team effort. It was always a team and that’s what made the show amazing, I think, to be part of.”
Snook won the award against Helen Mirren (1923), Bella Ramsey (The Last of Us), Keri Russell (The Diplomat), Imelda Staunton (The Crown), and Emma Stone (The Curse).
