The 75th Golden Globes are done and dusted, so here are the main things we'll take away from the evening.

• It was all very charged. Practically every winner - and quite a few presenters too - used their moment in the spotlight to pay tribute to women who have spoken out against sexual harassment, call time on the Hollywood status quo or comment on gender pay disparity in the entertainment industry.
• The most powerful speech of the night came from special honoree Oprah Winfrey, who spoke passionately and eloquently in support of a free press, women "speaking their truth" and "a new day dawning on the horizon".
• Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri and Big Little Lies were the big winners, taking home four awards apiece. The former won acting awards for Frances McDormand and Sam Rockwell, while the latter saw three of its cast members - Nicole Kidman, Alexander Skarsgard and Laura Dern - recognised.
• It was an okay night for the Brits, with awards for Gary Oldman, Ewan McGregor and Three Billboards' Martin McDonagh.
• From a fashion point of view, black was very much in. Barely anyone dared to deviate from the unofficial dress code, making for something of a sombre evening sartorially.
• Seth Meyers started well with an opening monologue full of zingers against Harvey Weinstein and Kevin Spacey. As the evening went on, though, he increasingly became a peripheral presence who often found himself having to talk over a chatty crowd who clearly had better things to do than listen to his links.
• At just over three hours, the evening felt long, earnest and a little worthy. Past Globes, particularly those hosted by Ricky Gervais, have been characterised by their looser atmosphere and alcohol-fuelled levity. This year, though, there was little room - or indeed enthusiasm - for letting it rip.

Here's what people have been saying about some of the night's winners.

And the final award of the evening goes to Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, which beats Call Me by Your Name, Dunkirk, The Post and The Shape of Water to be named best film drama.

Its victory brings the ceremony to a slightly muted ending, enlivened slightly by Sam Rockwell stepping up to the microphone (after producer Graham Broadbent) to thank his agent.

One of the tightest races of the night is won by Frances McDormand for Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri.

Some had expected Britain's Sally Hawkins to nick it for The Shape of Water, but in the end it was the Fargo Oscar winner who swung the votes of the HFPA membership.

McDormand - who gets a thumbs up from Meryl Streep for promising to buy drinks for her fellow nominees - thanks the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, not least "for electing a female president" in Meher Tatna.

She also has this to say in a speech whose occasionally fruity language tests the reflexes of the NBC censors.

British actor Gary Oldman scoops the award for his portrayal as Winston Churchill in Darkest Hour.

And he made sure to thank the wartime prime minister himself in his acceptance speech.

He told the audience:

He also thanked the make up artists who transformed him 63 times, and gave a special thanks to his wife Gisele Schmidt.

And the award goes to... Lady Bird!

Nice to see a film written and directed by a woman get this prize in this year of all years, especially as Greta Gerwig was rather questionably denied a best director nod.

In a breathless speech, the 34-year-old thanks her female leads Saoirse Ronan and Laurie Metcalf - "the goddesses" - before paying tribute to her home town.

Lady Bird is her directorial debut.

Ireland's Saoirse Ronan beats Emma Stone, Margot Robbie and a pair of Dames - Judi Dench and Helen Mirren - to be named best actress in a comedy or musical for the charming coming-of-age tale Lady Bird.

The 23-year-old gives a shout-out to her mother Monica, who she says is watching on FaceTime. (Other videotelephony services are available.)

She also says "how inspirational it is to be in this room tonight".

Here's just a taste of some of the reaction.

Hard to be too surprised at Big Little Lies beating Fargo, Feud, The Sinner and Top of the Lake to the best miniseries award.

It's the show's fourth award of the night, after Nicole Kidman, Laura Dern and Alexander Skarsgard's acting accolades earlier.

Here's what star and executive producer Reese Witherspoon had to say about the evening's dominant theme.

The award goes to Mexico's Guillermo del Toro for The Shape of Water, a beguiling fable about a mute janitor who falls for an amphibian fish creature. (Yes, really.)

Before he wins, though, presenter Natalie Portman makes the point that all of the directors up for the award this year are male.

It's the director's first Golden Globe - a point he makes when he is nearly played off stage. Luckily, he's given a bit more time to finish his speech.

Actress and chat show legend Oprah Winfrey, winner of this year's Cecil B DeMille award for "outstanding contributions to the world of entertainment", brings the audience to their feet with a rousing speech.

As the first black woman to get the award, she says it is "an honor and a privilege". But she also has powerful words to say about the importance of a free press - and the importance of speaking out against intolerance and abuse.

This one goes to Aziz Ansari, for Master of None - which he created, as well as being its star.

It's his first Golden Globe - though he's been nominated before.

He also thanks Italy, "for all the amazing food we ate in season two".

Ansari, 34, is the first Asian American actor to win a Golden Globe for best leading performance in a TV comedy.

This one goes to Amazon's The Marvelous Mrs Maisel - its second award of the night.

Series creator Amy Sherman-Palladino should also win the awards for best headgear, as she's sporting a truly fantastic hat, and for this on-stage comment:

Another British winner!

Ewan McGregor thanks his Fargo co-star Mary Elizabeth Winstead (also believed to be his partner) - as well as his estranged wife Eve Mavrakis, "who always stood by me for 22 years" - in his acceptance speech.

The Scotsman also gives thanks to his four children and says he has "always loved being an actor".

Hugh Grant reunites with Sarah Jessica Parker - his co-star in 2009's Did You Hear About the Morgans? - to present this year's best foreign film award to Germany's In the Fade.

Director Fatih Akin is joined on stage by actress Diane Kruger, who stars in the film as a mother whose husband and son are killed in a neo-Nazi bomb attack.

The film's win comes at the expense of both Palme d'Or winner The Square and Angelina Jolie's Cambodia-set Netflix title First They Killed My Father.

A standing ovation for Kirk Douglas, who turned 101 last month yet is here regardless, in a wheelchair, to soak up the plaudits of the Golden Globe audience.

He's here with daughter-in-law Catherine Zeta-Jones to present the award for best movie screenplay to dark comedy drama Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri.

Britain's Martin McDonagh, who also directed the film, collects the prize and says hello to his mother, "who likes this kind of thing".

Alison Janney wins for her role as Tonya Harding's tough-as-nails mother LaVona in I, Tonya.

The former West Wing star says the former figure skater is in the audience and thanks her for "sharing her story".
