Gbemisola Ikemelo won the award for the best female performance in a comedy, for her performance in Black Ops.

"We have to keep celebrating women in comedy," she tells the BBC after accepting her award.

Being at the Bafta Awards means "we're sort of playing at the highest level in our careers, and that's something to be celebrated", she adds.

You'd be forgiven for thinking Happy Valley, Top Boy and The Sixth Commandment were tonight's big winners, taking home two awards each.

But, when the tallies are counted up to include the Craft Awards too, BBC One's coverage of Eurovision 2023 was actually the big winner with three trophies.

Tonight's ceremony wasn't the only Bafta awards show highlighting the best British television has to offer. Two weeks ago, the Bafta TV Craft Awards took place. They honour the more technical side of television, with awards like costume design, sound and casting being handed out.

BBC One's Eurovision Song Contest 2023 received two coveted Bafta trophies at those awards: multi-camera director and entertainment craft team respectively, which, when added to its win tonight for live event coverage, mean it is the overall winner of the 2024 TV Baftas, with a total of three awards.

Audience favourites like HBO's The Last of Us and Apple TV's Slow Horses also received two craft awards but went home empty-handed in tonight's ceremony, making Eurovision the only nominee to be awarded on both nights.

Lorraine Kelly spoke to the BBC after receiving a special award for her decades-long television career.

"How did that happen? It's gone by in a flash," she says, remarking on her 40-year career.

The final seasons of Top Boy and Happy Valley were among the big winners at the Bafta TV Awards on Sunday.

Top Boy, which first aired on Channel 4 but was revived by Netflix, won the prestigious best drama prize.

It held off competition from Happy Valley, but the BBC drama won best actress for Sarah Lancashire as well as the memorable moment prize.

There were also special prizes for daytime TV star Lorraine Kelly and Baroness Floella Benjamin.

The ceremony at Royal Festival Hall has finished but for its many beautiful, glammed up attendees the night is just beginning.

They are all sitting down for a quick dinner before dancing and the after-parties start for winners, nominees and guests. It's a clear, summery evening.

With temperatures hitting the high twenties earlier, many are making a beeline for the bar to get a nice, cool drink.

As we announced earlier, Baroness Floella Benjamin received tonight's most prestigious award - the Bafta Fellowship.

The Prince of Wales surprised Benjamin by appearing in a video before she was presented with the award.

In the video, Prince William highlight's her achievements throughout her career, saying she has "touched the lives of millions" and calling her a "a beacon of representation and a voice for change".

Happy Valley, The Sixth Commandment and Top Boy were all among the front runners, so these shows taking home two gongs each shows the pull of gripping realistic dramas.

It's been a good night for the BBC - it produced or commissioned all these shows.

What was surprising was The Crown walking home completely empty-handed despite all its nominations.

Another surprise was Class Act winning best international TV show. It beat some heavy hitters including Beef, The Bear and Succession - which have all done well at American television awards.

The final awards have been handed out, the champagne glasses are being emptied, and the stars are off to celebrate/commiserate* (*delete as appropriate).

Rob Beckett signs off saying it’s been an absolute pleasure to host the event. Co-presenter Romesh Ranganathan jokes, “I wouldn’t go that far.”

What’s next? After parties for some, at various venues across the city. For others, perhaps a cold shower and bed. It’s been a long, hot evening.

Thanks for tuning into our coverage and congratulations to all the winners!

The coveted leading actress award, presented by Hollywood star Jeff Goldblum, goes to Sarah Lancashire.

She played the fierce detective Catherine Cawood in BBC series Happy Valley, which drew to a dramatic close last year with its third season.

"Look it up on IMDB and you'll see who was involved," Peter says as he opens his speech on stage.

"The reality is sometimes you get a chance to play people that have had a terrible thing happen to them and all they wanted was love and it's a beautiful thing to be able to tell a story about something like that.

"This is a story about many things... terrible crimes... but it's also about love."

Here are the nominees:

• Brian Cox, Succession - Sky Atlantic
• Dominic West, The Crown - Netflix

He takes to the stage in his silver Queen Elizabeth I costume.
