The nominations for the 83rd Academy Awards were announced in Hollywood today, and in a special programme Mark Lawson talks to some of the key contenders and discusses the likely winners.

The King's Speech leads the field with 12 nominations: we hear from director Tom Hooper, as well as Colin Firth, in the running for best actor, and Helena Bonham Carter, nominated for best supporting actress.

Scott Rudin is the producer of two films with 18 nominations between them. He discusses True Grit, the Coen brothers' new version of the classic western, which has won ten nominations, and the Facebook film The Social Network, which has eight.

Mark also interviews Nicole Kidman, nominated for best actress for Rabbit Hole, director Danny Boyle and screenwriter Simon Beaufoy, who reflect on the making of 127 Hours, and Michael Arndt, who has a screenwriting nomination for the hit animation Toy Story 3 - also nominated for best film.

Film reviewers Chris Tookey and Larushka Ivan-Zadeh deliver their verdicts on the Oscar hopefuls, and offer their predictions for the winners, to be announced at the Oscars ceremony on 27 February.
