Who won Best Supporting Actress in a Limited Series for Adolescence?

Erin Doherty won Best Supporting Actress in a Limited Series or a Movie Made for Television for Adolescence at the 2026 Critics Choice Awards.

Doherty plays Briony Ariston in Adolescence, a British crime drama limited series created by Jack Thorne and Stephen Graham. The story follows the aftermath of a teenage boy's arrest and examines how the investigation affects his family, school, and community.

Adolescence was the leading television winner, taking four awards. It won Best Limited Series, Stephen Graham won Best Actor in a Limited Series or Movie Made for Television, and Owen Cooper won the supporting-actor prize. Doherty completed the program's four-award haul with her supporting-actress victory.

The category's full name matters because Critics Choice combines limited series and made-for-television movies in several acting awards. Doherty's honor was for a limited-series performance, while Sarah Snook won the actress category for All Her Fault.
