David Tennant hosted the 78th British Academy Film Awards (BAFTAs) at the Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall in London on Sunday, February 16.
Edward Berger’s Conclave, which received the most nominations of any picture this year, won the two top categories, Best Film and Outstanding British Film.
The BAFTAs was a star-studded event.
The ceremony was a star-studded night, with the British pop band Take That hitting the stage to perform their song Greatest Day, featured in Anora.
Wicked actor Jeff Goldblum also performed at the ceremony, playing piano during the "In Memoriam" tribute.

Zoe Saldaña, who won the 2025 BAFTA for Best Supporting Actress, swore during her acceptance speech at the award ceremony after she won for her role in the controversial Netflix musical, Emilia Pérez.
A tearful Zoe said: "I was told not to cry by my children, so I'll try. This is so validating and a true honor because the very few times that I went for a part with a British accent or dialect coach, I was like, 'This is not going to happen to you.' Even though I have a lot of British friends, I find myself repeating all their phrases, and I know that I'm a pain in the a--."
When the band started to play her off for her speech going on for too long, the Guardians of the Galaxy actress began to panic and repeatedly said, "F---, f--, f---."
Zoe Saldaña cursed during her acceptance speech.
