Yes, Babs looked great. I watched the Bafas on TV tonight and I also recorded the ceremony.
This is what Sam Mendes said in his short speech of thanks:
1,292 people worked on this movie and I stand here on behalf of all of them. We all had very high expectations for the film and I think it’s fair to say that all of them have been exceeded, and this really is the icing on the cake. So, thank you very much Bafta. There are two people I want to say a special thank you to. I want to say thank you to the person around who we built this movie and without whom the movie could not have happened and that, of course, is Daniel Craig, [clapping from those on stage and the audience] for his bravery and his brilliance and his friendship and his sheer bloody-mindedness. And last, but by no means least, I want to say thank you to someone who is not here, to the great Ian Fleming who sixty years ago, almost to the day, sat down and wrote: ‘He was a secret agent and still alive thanks to his exact attention to the detail of his profession.' Here’s to the next fifty years. Thank you very much.
It was very good that he acknowledged Daniel in such a generous way.

I love how sincere Sam Mendes sounds when he says those nice things about Daniel. Some have the knack for it and Sam is great.
Hope Daniel and Rachel watched the telecast and that she gave him a huge kiss.
It was touching to see Bradley in tears when David O'Russel was giving his speech.
Loved Ben's speech too. Its nice to see how genuinely appreciative he is of the awards he's been receiving this season.
Haven't seen Amour but I'm glad Riva won for a change.
JenLaw was great in SLP but not that great imo to swoop in and take all the awards.
Yeah I want Joaquin to win the Oscar. Enough of DDL. Let someone else shine.
Hoping for someone other than Anne Hathaway to win the Oscar.
Anne is becoming insufferable imo.

Going a bit off topic here -

"In a 2000 interview, Clooney described his confrontation with Russell after tensions on the set had been steadily increasing.
According to Clooney, Russell was demeaning the crew verbally and physically. Clooney felt this was out of line and told Russell, "David, it's a big day.
But you can't shove, push or humiliate people who aren't allowed to defend themselves." After the confrontation escalated, Clooney said Russell eventually apologized and filming continued, but Clooney described the incident as "truly, without exception, the worst experience of my life."
When asked if he would work with Russell again, Clooney responded, "Life’s too short."[13] "

Good for Clooney and I don't like David O'Russell. Hope SLP loses big time in the Oscars. Just because.

I'm really happy about this award, and it was so well deserved. Shame they snubbed Daniel though. And I want to smack that expression off of O'Russell's face. How dare he. I hope Riva wins the oscar now.
