At the risk of revealing what a nerd I am, it was interesting to see Helen Mirren and Gillian Anderson nominated in the same category. When Gillian Anderson won her Emmy for her role as Scully in the X-Files, Helen Mirren presented it to her. I recall Gillian remarking about how honored she was being presented the award from Helen Mirren, whom she admires. Now they are both nominated for Outstanding Actress in a Mini Series!
