See how the ceremony unfolded

TV Baftas: The main nominations

This year’s Bafta TV Awards were a strange, subdued affair thanks to social-distancing regulations – but there were some deserving and unexpected winners. Stath Lets Flats beat out tough competition in the form of Fleabag and Derry Girls to take home the Scripted Comedy award, while The End of the F***ing World won Best Drama Series.

The Best Mini-Series award, meanwhile, went to Chernobyl, and Glenda Jackson won Leading Actress for Elizabeth Is Missing.

The annual ceremony was broadcast on BBC One and was the first in its history to be held virtually.

Richard Ayoade hosted the event in a closed and socially distanced studio, with winners accepting their awards via video link.

A new category voted for by the general public, called Must-See Moment and recognising memorable scenes from British television of the last year, was won by the recent Christmas special of Gavin and Stacey, for the moment in which Nessa proposed to Smithy.

Somehow watching celebrities presenting awards to zero audience is even more awkward than I had anticipated

Next up, the Bafta for Entertainment Programme goes to Strictly Come Dancing. "It's the second time we've won this award.... in 17 series." Is it just me, or is that a little bit pointed?

Supporting Actress goes to Naomi Ackie for the End of the F***ing World! "Are you serious?! Oh wait, I've got to get my phone up!"

"This makes lockdown so much better," concludes Ackie, in a heartfelt, thankfully non-pre-recorded speech

Race Across the World was one of the best things I watched during lockdown, so I'm rooting for that...

And the Bafta goes to Races Across The World! Well deserved.
