Morton was visibly emotional and overwhelmed as she said: “This is nothing short of a miracle.

“When I first saw Ken Loach’s Kes on a huge telly that was wheeled into my classroom I was forever changed.

“Seeing poverty and people like me on the screen, I recognised myself – representation matters.”

She said she would tell her younger self: “You matter, don’t give up, the stories we tell, they have the power to change people’s lives.

“Film changed my life, it transformed me and it led me here today.”

She added: “I dedicate this award to every child in care, or who has been in care and who didn’t survive.”

Pop star Sophie Ellis-Bextor took to the stage to perform her 2004 hit Murder on the Dancefloor after it enjoyed a resurgence thanks to its appearance in Saltburn.

Taking a stroll through the audience, Tennant paid sarcastic homage to "one of the most memorable films of the year" in Emerald Fennell's dark comedy Saltburn, sitting an aisle up from Elspeth Catton herself Rosamund Pike.

"What can I say about Saltburn? Not very much because we're pre-watershed!" he joked. "There were some people in a house that were good at keeping clean; one does a dance at the end while his clothes are in the wash... erm, but the song he danced to was of course [handing the microphone to Pike, who confirmed 'Murder on the Dancefloor' by Sophie Ellis-Bextor].

"Exactly!" Tennant chipped back in, "and that very song and that very scene have become a viral sensation, and an incredible 22 years after the song was originally released, it shot back into the Top 10 and the hashtag on TikTok - so young people tell me - has had more than 200 million views. So we couldn't pass up the opportunity to bring you a very special performance."

Enter Ellis-Bextor, who did the rest with a load of backing dancers.

As BBC One's opening, star-studded red carpet montage played out, ceremony host David Tennant and Michael Sheen hijacked the broadcast with a Staged-style skit. "Can you hear me? Michael, how's it going?" asked the Scotsman from his kitchen. "Yep, I don't have time for pleasantries David, some of us are big in America," his pal quipped from a theatre dressing room, "in fact, I have a Zoom with LA in 10 minutes..."

Apparently, though, it was 4am in Los Angeles. "That was the only time I could fit them in, so they're getting up early," was Sheen's phony defence, who then informed the Doctor Who star that he'd be dropping his brand-new pet dog Bark Ruffalo at the Tennant household on the morning of the BAFTAs. But of course, Tennant had double-booked.

Sheen proceeded to hang up, which lead Tennant to desperately flick through his contact book. Stanley Tucci, Himesh Patel, Tom Hiddleston and Dame Judi Dench all declined to help out, so there was no other option but to take Bark Ruffalo to the awards with him. Hilariously, a baffled Sheen was sat in the front row of the Royal Festival Hall.

"Michael, Michael, what is this? This is why you wanted me to dog-sit, so you can sit here?!" said a seething Tennant, before declaring to the crowd: "Never work with animals or Michael Sheen!"

The British Academy Film Awards (Sunday 7pm, BBC One) are rarely ones to rock the boat, and this year’s nominees are a perfect case in point – the Oscar-season equivalent of a serene paddle around a frost-fringed pond, with moorhens honking picturesquely on the bank.

Baftas 2024 predictions: who will win, who should win (The Daily Telegraph, 7 min read)

The 2024 Bafta Awards kicked off on Sunday 18 February at the Royal Festival Hall in London.

Britain’s biggest night in the awards season celebrates the best in film and television, and for fashion fanatics, it’s another chance to witness some showstopping sartorial moments from the globe’s most iconic celebrities on top of it taking place in the middle of London Fashion Week.

These are the best dressed from the 2024 Baftas (The Independent, 5 min read)

Awards season is heating up and so are the Baftas, Britain’s biggest celebration of cinema and one of the best indicators of which films are likely to win big at the Oscars.

The 2024 Bafta Film Awards will take place on Sunday, 18 February — broadcast on BBC One from 7pm and last year saw Edward Berger’s war epic All Quiet on the Western Front emerge from the sidelines to sweep up a host of top trophies. However, with a brand new year comes a brand new selection of movies, from Oppenheimer to Poor Things and The Zone of Interest, that are each vying for Bafta gold — but who and what will win?

Click here for all the key details you’ll need ahead of the 2024 Bafta Film Awards ceremony, including where and how to watch, who’ll be hosting, who’s been nominated and more.

From Oppenheimer to Anatomy of a Fall, there's a few films that stand out from the crowd this awards season.

Awards season is always fun to try and predict, with some films and actors often becoming frontrunners early on in the race. The Baftas is a good indicator of how things will pan out at the Oscars later this year, but who exactly is the favourite to win?

Let's dive into it.

The Baftas, also known as the British Academy Film Awards, is always good at celebrating homegrown talent, even going so far as to have categories specifically catered towards British films and directors, but can it be said that the event favours Brits?

Ahead of this year's ceremony, Yahoo will look back at the event's 74 year history and how British actors, directors, and films have tended to do in years past and what it could mean for the 2024 nominees.

Here is everything you need to know.

Barbie stars Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling reunited at the 2024 Baftas as they both compete for acting prizes on the night.

Robbie is already one of the biggest winners of the night without an award being presented having produced Barbie which has five nominations in total.

2023 — the cinematic year being celebrated by the 2024 Baftas — was a landmark year in movies for a number of reasons, most notably the shift in the types of stories that are finding the most success. For the first time since 2013, the most successful Hollywood movie is not a sequel, but Greta Gerwig’s Barbie.

The success of films like Barbie and Oppenheimer suggests a change of direction in Hollywood and with audiences - Victoria Luxford digs into why 2023 was a landmark year at the pictures.

After crossing paths at the 2023 Baftas, Prince William has reunited with another Cate at this year's ceremony.

While not nominated at the 2024 awards, Blanchett won Best Actress for Tar at last year's show.

David Tennant has been handed the prestigious reins of hosting the 2024 Baftas, marking a rite of passage in his status as a national treasure.

The Scottish actor has been a staple of the British entertainment industry for some time, gaining critical acclaim for role after role and being celebrated by fans around the globe for programmes like Doctor Who, Good Omens, and Broadchurch.

What does it mean to be a national treasure? And why can David Tennant be called one now he's hosting the Bafta Film Awards?

Well, let's dig into it.

That's all from the Bafta red carpet for now. All the guests move indoors, the main ceremony will take place behind closed doors and then broadcast on BBC One and BBC iPlayer from 7pm-9pm.

We'll keep sharing updates as they happen, but won't spoil the winners until they are aired on TV.

Prince William has arrived at the 2024 Baftas. The president of the British Academy will be flying solo at the event with his wife, the Princess of Wales, recently undergoing a medical procedure.

It was thought he would miss the event at the Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall.

Last year, he attended the ceremony along with the Princess of Wales, where they met award-winners Cate Blanchett, Austin Butler and Emma Mackey.

Meg Bellamy, the 21-year-old star of Netflix The Crown, will likely be hoping to avoid any awkward interactions with Prince William at the 2024 Baftas.

Bellamy played Kate Middleton in the controversial royal drama, while the Prince of Wales will be at the awards ceremony in his capacity as president of the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (Bafta).

Da'Vine Joy Randolph blew a kiss to the camera as she posed for photographers ahead of the 2024 Baftas.

The 37-year-old is nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her performance in The Holdovers which is competing for seven awards in total.

Lord of the Rings star Andy Serkis exchanged greetings with Barbie's Ryan Gosling on the Bafta red carpet as they made their way to the ceremony.

Serkis, who won the BAFTA Award for Outstanding British Contribution To Cinema in 2020, gave the Best Supporting Actor nominee a friendly pat on the arm as they chatted, with David Beckham photobombing between the pair.

David Beckham, who is presenting one of the awards at the 2024 Baftas, happily signed autographs for fans as he made his way up the red carpet to the Royal Festival Hall where the awards are being held.

Cate Blanchett, Dua Lipa, Idris Elba, Hugh Grant, and Gillian Anderson have also been named as presenters on the night.

Best actor nominee Barry Keoghan has arrived for the 2024 Baftas. The Irish actor is hoping to build on his success from last year's Baftas which saw him winning Best Supporting Actor for The Banshees of Inisherin. This time, he's been nominated for his bold performance in Emerald Fennell's Saltburn, and faces stiff competition from Bradley Cooper, Colman Domingo, Paul Giamatti, Cillian Murp and Teo Yoo.

Maestro co-stars Carey Mulligan and Bradley Cooper seemed to be enjoying their time on the Bafta red carpet, sharing a laugh together as they posed for photographers.

Their film, a biopic of legendary composer and conductor Leonard Bernstein, is nominated for seven awards including Best Director for Cooper, and Best Actor and Actress.

Back To The Future star Michael J. Fox arrived at the 2024 Baftas with his wife Tracy Pollan. The 62-year-old actor, who lives with Parkinson's disease, is nominated for Best Documentary with his Apple TV+ film Still: A Michael J. Fox Movie.
