Note
  1. ^ Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They acknowledge several different recipients, have runners-up, and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.

The following is a list of awards and nominations received by British actress Brenda Blethyn. For her portrayal of Cynthia Purley in the 1996 Mike Leigh drama Secrets & Lies, Blethyn was named Best Actress at the Cannes Film Festival, as well as receiving Golden Globe and BAFTA Awards, and a nomination for that year's Academy Award for Best Actress. She received her second Oscar nomination, this time for Best Supporting Actress, for her portrayal of Mari Hoff in the 1998 comedy-drama Little Voice. Her other accolades include a Theatre World Award, an Empire Award, a London Film Critics' Circle Award, a British Comedy Award, a Royal Television Society Award, and a Rose d'Or, in addition to nominations for three further BAFTAs, two further Golden Globes, two Primetime Emmys, four Satellite Awards, three Screen Actors Guild Awards, and one Olivier Award.
