BAFTAs 2016

The BAFTAs took place yesterday with much hype and intrigue given this is the last major film award ceremony before the Academy Awards at the end of the month. With the inevitable question as to whether this will finally be Leo's year and the controversy around diversity,  I can at least report one bit of good news, despite nine nominations, Carol didn't win a thing! Sense prevails.

Biggest Wins Roundup:
The Revenant: 5 wins (Best Film, Director, Leading Actor, Sound, Cinematography)
Mad Max: Fury Road - 4 wins (Editing, Costume Design, Production Design, Make Up & Hair).

And the winners are... (I've picked out the best bits for you)
