And with that, dear friends, it is time to call it a night. Who knows how we will remember the 2023 film Baftas. Will it be the night that the UK embraced a film in German about the first world war? The night that reinforced the idea that the fastest way to win an award is to play a dead singer? The night where Alison Hammond kept asking famous people if she could come out partying with them, and they all kept saying no?
Either way, thanks for sticking with me. I’m assuming you’ve been glued to this liveblog for the last eight hours, right? Good, because I’ll be very disappointed if you haven’t. Goodnight everyone.
For some proper, actual considered analysis – and not just a man complaining about sofas for two hours straight – Peter Bradshaw has just filed his take of the night. Always very compelling reading.
