American Horror Story: Asylum' and 'The Big Bang Theory' have each been nominated for six Critics' Choice Television Awards.

This year’s Tony Awards honoured The Normal Heart for its passionate look at the Aids crisis and War Horse, a play which shows the horror of the battlefield. But the night’s biggest prize went to a musical which mocked both.

Thoroughly Modern Millie - the Jazz Age tale of an ambitious flapper - tapped its way to six Tony Awards last night, including best musical.
