Alan Carr and Paloma Faith are still friends, and nine other Bafta TV moments

ShareSaveAdd as preferred on GoogleNoor NanjiCulture correspondentGetty ImagesThere were tears, there were surprises, there were fabulous outfits - as one of the biggest nights for UK television, the Bafta TV awards, took place. The ceremony is now over and we know all the winners and losers. Netflix's mega hit Adolescence scooped up multiple awards on the night, while there was also a special prize for the high queen of the kitchen, Dame Mary Berry. We were on the red carpet before heading backstage to get all the gossip from the winners. Here are all the moments you may have missed. Famous faithful and traitors mingled on the red carpet at London's Royal Festival Hall on Sunday. They included the winner of the first ever series of Celebrity Traitors, Alan Carr, who, awkwardly, also caught up with Paloma Faith - who he famously "murdered" in the show, much to everyone's surprise given the pair were friendly in real life. But they smiled and posed for pictures, leading Bafta to post on its X account: "Breaking news: Alan Carr and Paloma Faith are still friends." Inside the ceremony, there was a further nod to the row. "Celebrity Traitors managed to turn Alan Carr into a manipulative serial killer," host Greg Davies deadpanned, adding: "We all know he's a good person". Sitting next to Carr, Faith begged to differ, smiling as she wags her finger at the camera. Later in the night, Carr scooped up the memorable moments award for the scene in which he hoodwinked his fellow finalists into believing he was a faithful. Accepting his award, his final word was for none other than - Paloma Faith. "I dedicate this to Paloma - there 's no one else I would rather murder more than you, I love you," he said. It was a father-daughter double act at the Baftas, as Rivals star Danny Dyer and his daughter, Love Islander Dani, teamed up to present an award. Taking to the stage to hand out the prize for best reality show, Danny quipped: "Two Danny Dyers at the Baftas. Do you know how people tell us apart? My chins." "I love your chins, dad," Dani responded, sweetly. Backstage, I asked Danny senior what it feels like to have become a heartthrob for Gen Z, thanks to his role in the Disney+ show. "Who's Gen Z again?" he asked, before his daughter jumped in: "I'm on the cusp of a Gen Z." "Nah, I don't think I'm a heartthrob to that age group," Danny said. "It's more older women, in their 40s." He went on to say that in the new series of Rivals, "I'm very much exposed, naked a lot. So I do apologise for that... I will shatter the myth." Broadcaster, journalist and campaigner Martin Lewis has made a career out of advising people about their money. But when he arrived backstage after receiving the Bafta Television special award, he was asked the question many of us have wondered - has he ever made an impulse purchase? Lewis admitted he has. And the answers may surprise you - a Van de Graaff generator and a theremin. (I hope I'm not the only one who had to Google what a theremin is). The Baftas are the end of a victory run for Adolescence, which has already swept up almost every available award of the past year. But 16 year old Owen Cooper, who won best supporting actor for his role as young teen Jamie Miller, still remembers where it all began. "Every time we are at these sort of events, and your name gets called out, your mind just flashes back to the first audition, the first time on set, the first time meeting the cast and stuff like that," he told reporters backstage. Stephen Graham, who starred and co-wrote Adolescence, said backstage he was "exceptionally proud" of what they had created, but insisted he was "just one piece in the puzzle" as he paid tribute to his colleagues. The current affairs prize went to Gaza: Doctors Under Attack, which was pulled by the BBC last year, which the broadcaster said was because of impartiality concerns. It was later shown by Channel 4 instead. Ben de Pear, the founder of Basement Films behind Gaza: Doctors Under Attack, added he had a question for the BBC: "Given you dropped our film, will you drop us from the Bafta screening later tonight?" He also thanked the journalists on the ground in Gaza. Extracts of De Pear's speech were later included in BBC One's broadcast of the awards, as part of a round-up of some of the winners. When the BBC shelved the documentary, it said in a statement that it "was determined to report all aspects of the conflict in the Middle East impartially and fairly." Speaking to reporters backstage, De Pear said it was "the commissioners at the BBC who had the problem engaging with the material, not the doctors who lost their families or the viewers". I'm always impressed at how celebrities don't seem to feel the cold. It was a chilly day in London, but that didn't stop the stars turning up to Royal Festival Hall in strappy dresses and sleeveless gowns. And if Sunday's red carpet is anything to go by, orange is here to stay. We spotted Bri
