As the hours-long BAFTA Awards took place in London, a number of celebrities were said to be fuming at the lack of food on offer. The annual event, held at Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall in London, celebrated the best in British talent on-screen.

However, for some it’s thought the long show could have done with offering food to those in the seats. Despite being offered drinks, there is said to have been very little food on offer for attendees, which left some stars reportedly trying to source their own.

According to The Sun, the duo had hoped to run to a shop nearby to source snacks for the lengthy ceremony. However, it’s claimed the reality TV stars were told in no uncertain circumstances that if they were to leave, there would be no option to return. It reportedly left the pair backing down from their quest.

At the awards ceremony, Danny Dyer broke a rule on stage, with Alan Cumming forced to apologise. The incident, however, wasn’t show during the BBC’s run. He was elated as he was presented the BAFTA for Best Male Performance in a Comedy.

The former EastEnders man received the gong for his impressive performance in Sky Comedy series Mr Bigstuff. When it came to accepting the prize, he admitted: “The acting was so bad it was funny”.

He then said a little too much as he swore in his speech, despite having being warned earlier about the Bafta rules. Danny said he was getting “choked up” as he gave his acceptance speech.

Dedicating the award win to writer Ryan Sampson, Danny said: “He’s one of the greatest people ever to come out of Rotherham – not saying much. You won this for me mate.”

He then went on: “Girls – Sunni, Dani, I done it,” before breaking the rules, blurting out: “I f***ing done it.” The 47-year-old star’s vocabulary left host Alan needing to say he was “asked to apologise” for the language from Danny.

Other award winners on the night included The Jury: Murder Trial, which won Best Reality programme. The show surprisingly pipped The Traitors to the title

Baby Reindeer star Jessica Gunning also took to the stage following her own win. She explained how her life has been “changed” by the hit Netflix show as she collected a TV BAFTA for her chilling performance in the drama.

The 39-year-old actress from Yorkshire played the role of crazed Scottish stalker Martha in the Netflix series, which was written by and starred comedian Richard Gadd,
