An emotional Ruth Jones has won the Bafta for Best Female Performance in a Comedy at the star-studded awards ceremony. This was a much-deserved win for her portrayal of the iconic Vanessa Shanessa 'Nessa' Jenkins in the Gavin & Stacey finale.
Wearing a beautiful sapphire blue gown, Ruth Jones began her speech in character as Nessa, recalling in the true style of the character how, "I've won a BAFTA before, of course I have, in 1976," before stepping out of the role to deliver the rest of her speech.
