The Irish co-production Normal People and the Irish feature animation Wolfwalkers are among this year's Golden Globe nominees.
Normal People is up for two awards - 'best television limited series', and 'best performance by an actress in a limited series' for lead actress Daisy Edgar-Jones (who played Marianne in the adaptation of Sally Rooney's novel).
The show was produced by Dublin-based Element Pictures, and co-directed by Ireland's Lenny Abrahamson.
