The best and brightest of the telly industry attended to battle it out to take home the prestigious awards.
Baby Reindeer actress Jessica Gunning has won the best supporting actress gong at the Bafta TV Awards.
The programme, which is nominated in several categories, follows Richard Gadd's character, Donny, who is stalked by Gunning's Martha after he serves her a free cup of tea in the pub that he works at.
Gunning said: "Gosh thank you Bafta. Wow. I sometimes do this kind of cheesy thing where I look back on the younger me and moments in my life, and I imagine the kind of then me, seeing me now, and think, 'little did we know'.
"I'm so proud to be part of this show.'
The actress from Yorkshire has already won a slew of awards for Baby Reindeer, including an Emmy and Golden Globe.
The Bafta reality prize has gone to Channel 4's The Jury: Murder Trial, beating the hit BBC psychological series The Traitors.
The reality series restaged a trial of murder, in front of two juries of ordinary people, and aired last year to critical acclaim
Ariyon Bakare has won the best supporting actor gong at the Bafta TV Awards for his role playing Morris De La Roux in BBC drama Mr Loverman.
The BBC also won the sport award for its coverage of the Paris 2024 Olympics and an award in the live coverage category for Glastonbury Festival.

Best specialist factual went to BBC Two's Atomic People, which heard from those who witnessed the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Sadly Freddie Flintoff's Field of Dreams on Tour was snubbed in favour of Channel 4's To Catch A Copper.
The female performance in a comedy Bafta has been snapped up by Welsh comedian Ruth Jones for BBC sitcom Gavin And Stacey: The Finale.
"I'm not going to lie this is immense," she said. "The person I would like to thank most his my dear, dear talented friend James Corden."
She said without British actor Corden "Vanessa Shanessa Nessa' Jenkins would not exist", as their final instalment of the show brought to a close the love story between his character and hers.

Wimbledon to be aired on new TV channel for the first time after BBC covered action at All-England Club for 88 years

Wimbledon will be shown on a new TV channel for the first time having been covered by the BBC for 88 years. While the company will still remain the principle broadcaster in the action when it comes to this year's action at SW19, a new broadcaster will show the event for the first time. This is courtesy of a stipulation in Ofcom 's Listed Events regulations, which permits 'secondary broadcasters' at major sporting tournaments. This year's tournament runs from Monday June 30 to Sunday July 13 and costs the BBC around £60million per year. But a new broadcaster will have rights to show highlights in 2025. That honour will see them take over the daily 90-minute highlights show of the action at the conclusion of each day's play. TNT Sports will assume the five-year deal that was originally signed by Eurosport in May last year after it bought Eurosport - which disappeared from UK viewers' screens back in February. The BBC have broadcast events at Wimbledon since 1937, when matches from Centre Court were shown up to half an hour each day. Coverage will come across BBC1 and BBC2, with all matches shown on BBC iPlayer, in addition to updates via radio, online and its app. Carlos Alcaraz will be seeking a third successive Wimbledon title after beating Novak Djokovic in each of the previous two finals on Centre Court. Meanwhile, Djokovic has burning ambitions of his own to win a 25th Grand Slam title and hold the outright record for the most majors won by a single player in the history of the sport. But it is his rival Alcaraz who will come into the tournament as favourite after his astonishing comeback victory over Jannik Sinner to lift the French Open title at Roland-Garros on Sunday. At one stage, the Spaniard was two sets down and had to save three championship points before completing an almighty fightback to win his fifth Grand Slam. As is tradition, he will appear on Centre Court during the first day of the tournament, with women's singles champion Barbora Krejcíkova doing the same.

Glastonbury cuts ticket numbers and makes drastic Charli XCX plans

Glastonbury 2025 is due to get underway in just three weeks and some shocking changes have just been announced by organise Emily Eavis. This year's event has sold out but will not use its full 210,000 capacity as normal. Eavis has revealed that the number of festival goers allowed onto the site has been cut as an experiment after a surge in crowds for big name acts in recent years. "It'll be interesting just to see how that affects the dynamics on site," Emily Eavis told the BBC's Sidetracked podcast, adding that she wants to see if the reduction "can make an impact on some of the busier times". She revealed they have also created more room for the audience at the Other Stage, the festival's second-biggest arena, where Charli XCX is expected to attract a huge crowd when she headlines on the Saturday night.

Now, the mum-to-be has shared more exciting news with her fans. Laura has reveled that her and husband Matt are having a baby boy. They shared a cute picture of themselves holding up a blue baby outfit. In a lengthy post next to the sweet snap, Laura revealed that the couple had bought the outfit when they started trying for a baby nine years ago. Continuing the post, The Great British Bake Off star said: "Well, earlier this year, as many of you know, our prayers were finally answered. And recently we found out we're having a little boy. "I'll be honest: part of me had hoped for a girl. "But looking back, we never bought a girl's outfit – just this one. "So maybe that's the universe's way of saying this was always meant to be. I was on Bake Off and cruel trolls mocked my fertility battle - it shattered my confidence, says Laura Adlington "Now, this little outfit isn't just a symbol of hope. It's waiting, just like we are, for the little boy who was always meant to fill it." BABY NEWS In April, Laura and Matt revealed they were expecting a 'miracle' baby after nine years of infertility and being told to lose 14st.

"I know announcements like this can be really painful, especially if you're in the thick of waiting or grieving, so please feel free to mute or unfollow if you need to and know I'm sending so much love your way. "It's been such a really long, and to be honest lonely road to get here – something many of you will know if you've followed me for a while or listened to the podcast. "We'd honestly made peace with the idea that having children might not happen for us. But about a year and a half ago, we quietly decided to give IVF a try. 5 The TV star has 'quietly been going through IVF' over the last year Credit: instagram/ "We kept it to ourselves and decided not to share online (or even with family) just so we didn't put more pressure on ourselves. "We had an unsuccessful round and a cancelled round, and then found out a couple of months ago that I was finally pregnant. "I'll be sharing a bit more over the coming weeks about our journey to get here but for now we're just really excited to share our news with you all. We honestly can't believe our luck." Back in 2022, Laura shared her dream about becoming a mum and starting a family. Two years before, Laura appeared The Great British Bake Off and made it all the way to the final, but lost out to the series' youngest-ever winner Peter Sawkins. The baking queen opened up about her struggles to conceive. Laura previously told The Sun's Fabulous Magazine: "Unless you've gone through infertility and that heartache of really wanting it and it not happening . . . it's the hardest thing I've ever gone through."
