Charlotte Crosby and Danny Dyer were among the stars making their exit from the BAFTA TV Awards at London's Royal Festival Hall on Sunday evening. The ceremony, which lasted three hours, saw a host of celebrities heading home after the prestigious event.
Charlotte Crosby's Joyful Departure
Television personality Charlotte Crosby, 35, looked visibly delighted as she left the venue, sporting a wide smile. She carefully held the hem of her dress while walking along the street before climbing into the back of a waiting taxi.
Danny Dyer's Casual Exit
Meanwhile, Danny Dyer, 48, was seen smoking a cigarette as he departed the iconic venue, a year after winning the Best Male Performance in a Comedy award. Despite the late hour, the former EastEnders actor shielded his eyes with sunglasses as he was escorted to his car. His daughter Dani left separately, despite having walked the red carpet with him earlier.
Adolescence Dominates the Awards
Stephen Graham's Netflix drama Adolescence dominated the awards with a record-breaking four wins. Graham, 52, won Best Actor for his portrayal of a father dealing with the aftermath of a violent crime involving his teenage son. The four-part series, which received 11 nominations, also took home Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress, and Limited Drama.
The show, created by Graham and writer Jack Thorne, follows British teenager Jamie Miller (Owen Cooper), who is convicted of murdering a female classmate after being influenced by online misogyny. Each episode is filmed in a single continuous shot, earning widespread praise for addressing online radicalisation.
Owen Cooper, 16, made history as the youngest winner of the Best Supporting Actor BAFTA, adding to his Golden Globe and Emmy wins. Christine Tremarco, who played his mother, won Best Supporting Actress, beating co-star Erin Doherty.
Other Notable Winners
Code of Silence won Best Drama, while Narges Rashidi took home Best Lead Actress for Prisoner 951. Amandaland, starring Lucy Punch, won Best Scripted Comedy, though Katherine Parkinson won Best Actress in a Comedy for Here We Go.
The Celebrity Traitors won Best Reality, and comedian Alan Carr was recognised in the public-voted memorable moment category. The documentary Gaza: Doctors Under Attack won Current Affairs after controversy over the BBC's decision not to broadcast it; Channel 4 later picked it up. Journalist Ramita Navai criticised the BBC while accepting the award.
Channel 4 also won for its Iran conflict coverage, and historian Simon Schama won for The Road to Auschwitz. The factual series award went to See No Evil, which examined the Church of England abuse scandal.
