Is La La Lands winning streak over?
The EE British Academy Film Awards took place at the Royal Albert Hall in London on Sunday 12th February 2017. Following the 2017 Golden Globes and the Screen Actors Guild Awards, the BAFTAs 2017 are a strong indicator for Oscar wins later this month.
Sophie Turner and Dominic Cooper announced the BAFTAs 2017 nominees last month, with La La Land unsurprisingly coming out on top with a whopping 11 nods, just in front of Nocturnal Animals and Arrival who each received 9 nominations.
But who won big at this year's awards? And what trends were set on the red carpet? Read on to find out.

BAFTAs 2017 Best Moments
From Kate Middleton showing up on the red carpet to Stephen Fry throwing some serious shade at Donald Trump a lot happened at this year's BAFTA awards. La La Land cleaned up five awards on the night, but given that the film was up for 11 we can't help but wonder if La La Lands winning streak is over? And why wasn't Ryan Gosling at this year's BAFTAs?
BAFTAs 2017 Red Carpet
The stars certainly arrived in style at this year's BAFTAs 2017 red carpet and the 2017 trends were clear from the start. From sequins and metallics to oriental gowns and white tuxedo coats, many of Hollywood's finest opted for similar looks on the night. Emma Stone even used the occasion to set a new trend, and we loved it.

What's on the menu at this year's BAFTAs?
This year's menu has officially been unveiled and has us green with envy that we're not goings. 2,000 lucky guests will dine on the below feast at Grosvenor House after the BAFTAs ceremony. If you haven't eaten yet, we recommend looking away now...
To start with, guests can either enjoy a Cornish crab salad, served with celery, apple jelly and a burnt celeriac mayonnaise, or a mixed grain salad with pickled vegetables, pea shoots and beetroot relish.
For mains, guests will have a choice of Venison Wellington with a juniper berry jus, potato gratin, glazed red cabbage, swede and broccoli, or a vegetarian option of puff pastry parcel with spinach, wild mushrooms, goat's cheese, winter vegetables, red cabbage and a watercress sauce. Um, are they allowed both?
A delicious dessert of Buffalo supermilk chocolate with blueberry and raspberry white crémeux and pumpkin seed granola follows.
Of course, no star-studded event is complete without trays and trays of delicious canapés. Send us the leftovers, guys?
Naturally there will be a big after party, held this year in The Grey Goose Fifth Floor Bar at Harvey Nichols, Knightsbridge. Some of the country's leading bartenders have collaborated with Grey Goose to put together the cocktail recipes for the night, each of which will be available to try at each bartender's respective venues throughout February. The list of cocktail connoisseurs is as follows: Xavier Landais – Sexy Fish Tom Kerr – Café Monico, Soho House & Co Erik Lorincz – American Bar, Savoy Hotel Andy Shannon – London Edition Hotel Tony Pescatori – Nightjar
