Last night's telly BAFTAs was a mixed bag of political digs (James Nestbitt, Ian Hislop and the director of Wolf Hall both took their opportunity of being onstage to highlight now the UK government are cutting funding to the BBC, and the impact that will have), silence (Peter Kay won Best Males Performance in a Comedy Drama and chose to stand at the podium saying now't), and the usual fair that happens at awards shows (lots of polite clapping).

In short, it was a fairly muted affair. In fact, the most animated anyone got accepting an award was Aidan Turner when Poldark won the Radio Times Audience Awards - and Graham Norton would wager most of that came courtesy of his "man bun". There was a risk of nodding off in parts; the only thing keeping me awake were cuts to Ant McPartlin sitting in the audience looking very swarthy indeed... Where has this beard been all his life. 

The big winner on the night was Wolf Hall with a whopping two awards, and a lot of nods to BBC productions such as EastEnders, The Great British Bake Off, and Have I Got News For You (Charlie Brooker was robbed).
