David Tennant, French comedy Call My Agent and Israeli drama Tehran are among those vying for prizes at the International Emmy Awards this year. Nominations for the awards this year saw 44 nominees across 11 categories and a record number of 24 countries.

Tennant is up for Best Performance from an Actor for his starring role in ITV crime series Des while Call My Agent has been nominated in the comedy category and Tehran in the Drama Series category.

Actress Menna Shalaby has earned her first ever Emmy nomination for her performance in the crime mini-series Every Week Has A Friday.

“We’re so proud of our nominees and the record-breaking number of countries,” said International Academy President and CEO Bruce Paisner in a statement. “To those who feared the pandemic would slow down TV production around the world, this is your answer.”

Winners will be announced at an in-person ceremony in New York City on November 22.
