If you subscribe to and can access The Times website you can now vote for Andrew for the South Bank Sky Arts/Times Breakthrough Awards.
It looks like you can only vote once.
The whole thing is behind the paywall but the blurb accompanying Andrew says:
THEATRE: Andrew Scott He was a beguiling, nervily countertenor Leo in the Old Vic’s autumn hit, Noël Coward’s Design for Living. His drunk scene with Tom Burke was a highlight of the night, and the homoerotic subtext kept elegantly understated. In the BBC’s wildly popular mini-series Sherlock with Benedict Cumberbatch he was equally camp, but this time flamboyant, cunning, playful and deeply sinister as the super-villain Moriarty. He was a good choice: an actor who often delivers something more subtle than you expect. His performance in Mike Bartlett’s Cock at the Royal Court helped to win the show an Olivier award. His is not yet a name that audiences recognise immediately, but if you are a casting director you certainly do. And the early thirties — he is 34 — are a good time to break through in acting. You have served your time and formed your own ideas about how you work best. This could be his year. Libby Purves
