TV Baftas

Last night marked the the 2023 TV BAFTAs, with A-listers descending on London's Royal Festival Hall from far and wide to celebrate the past year in television. 

The ceremony, hosted this year by Romesh Ranganathan and Rob Beckett, was action-packed, with knock-out speeches (ahem Kate Winslet) and of course the return of the blue ribbon red carpet trend

But from Bridgerton and Derry Girls to This Is Going to Hurt and The Traitors, who were the night's big winners?

Here's what you need to know.
