In true Danny Dyer style, the actor's full acceptance speech was simply too explicit to air in full at this year's TV Bafta Awards.
But luckily for you, we have it in full…
The EastEnders star, 47, picked up the trophy for best male performance in a comedy for his portrayal of Lee in Sky series Mr Bigstuff.
As he took to the stage to accept his prize, viewers saw him joke on BBC One tonight that 'the acting was so bad it was funny.'
He also thanked his family and writer and actor Ryan Sampson, whom he called the 'best thing to come out of Rotherham'.
However, Danny proceeded to swear several times, despite being warned earlier about the Bafta rules.
Consequently, host Alan Cumming had to say sorry on Danny's behalf for the actor's potty mouth.
But what exactly was said? Well, it involved plenty of F-bombs…
In his hilarious speech live from Southbank Centre's Royal Festival Hall, Danny's emotion clearly got the better of him, as he said: 'I want to thank Sky for giving our show a shot. F***ing hell, I'm choked up.'
Heaping praise on co-star Sampson, he continued: 'One of the best actors this country's ever produced, I'm telling you. Never done the same thing twice. Which is not something I can say.
'He wrote this part for me, so you know… I'm getting choked up again, f**k me. So you won this for me, mate, I really appreciate it. Thank you so much.'
Danny concluded by shouting out his two daughters, Dani, 28, and Sunnie, 18, who were sitting in the audience, not missing the opportunity to dish out one last expletive.
Danny said: 'Girls, Sunnie and Dani… I've done it, girls, I've f**king done it!'
Of course, this was all pre-watershed, forcing The Traitors host Cumming to tell the star-studded crowd: 'I've been asked to apologise for the naughty language there.'
Carrying his Bafta with pride to the winners' room, Danny reflected on how much it meant, joking that not everyone is likely to be happy about his victory.
Speaking to Metro and other press, the Rivals star replied when reminded he had scored the 'number one acting accolade in this country': 'I can't believe it.'
Asked what his critics over the years might have to say, he quipped: 'Oh, there'll be some people fuming!
'I don't know, man. I've earned it. I only want one; I don't need more than this. I'm happy. I've lifted a couple of NTAs over the years, and I always like to win awards and lose them, do the moody clap [pretending] that you're happy for someone else… I've done all that b******s, and I thought I'd be doing that tonight.

'I've had a really good run this year. Rivals has been so well received,' he reminisced.
'A bit odd, really. I've got Rivals sitting there, and I've got Mr Bigstuff there,' he gesticulated.
'I've made it.'
Danny triumphed over some tough competition tonight, as he was nominated against Bilal Hasna for Extraordinary, Dylan Thomas-Smith for G'wed, and Nabhaan Rizwan for Kaos.
Oliver Savell, who plays a young Alan Carr in Changing Ends, was also recognised, as was Phil Dunning for his role in BBC Three's Smoggie Queens.
Other big winners of the night included Mr Bates Vs The Post Office, which scooped limited drama, while Mr Loverman stars Lennie James and Ariyon Bakare won leading actor and supporting actor, respectively. More Trending
Marisa Abela took home leading actress for playing Yasmin in Industry, while Jessica Gunning was clearly stunned to receive the supporting actress Bafta for Martha in Baby Reindeer.
EastEnders won best soap, Would I Lie To You? won for entertainment, and The Jury: Murder Trial won for reality.

Michelle Keegan lands six-figure deal in first major job since having baby Palma
Just three months after giving birth to her first child with husband Mark Wright, Michelle Keegan has landed a huge deal worth six-figures, it has been reported Michelle Keegan has signed a six-figure advertising deal just three months after becoming a new mum. The former Coronation Street star has been embracing life as a first-time mum since welcoming baby Palma Elizabeth Wright into the world on March 6. Michelle and Mark Wright have been enjoying their time as new parents over the last three months. Fans have been given a glimpse into their first holiday abroad as a family of three last month as Michelle and Mark, both 38, headed to Spain with two-month-old Palma. Michelle revealed to her followers that Palma has been given the nickname Princess P, whilst confirming that it was their first holiday. She wrote in the caption of her post: "Princess P's first family holiday." But it seems it is back to business for Michelle who has just signed a deal to become the new face of Sky. She is set to film a series of promo clips — which will be shown around the globe — with fellow British actor, Luther star Idris Elba. She landed the deal after becoming a major player for Sky, with her comedy-drama Brassic one of the most popular series to air on the platform. A source told The Sun: 'Michelle has really been enjoying maternity leave with Palma, but she'll be back to work soon to film these new adverts for Sky. She has signed a six-figure deal for the job and is thrilled to have been chosen to appear alongside Idris, who has been their 'face'. 'Brassic is ending after the seventh series and Michelle is keen to still be a part of the Sky brand. Landing this ad is huge for Michelle, as she's fast becoming a brand in her own right. Everything she touches seems to turn to gold.' Michelle Keegan is now a household name after appearing in some of Britain's favourite TV shows including Our Girl and Coronation Street. However, the star went from working at a make-up counter when she finished school to a successful actress with what seems like a dream life. The Stockport star didn't have plans when she first left school and found herself working at Selfridges in the Trafford Centre on a make-up counter and at Manchester Airport as a check-in agent. But she seems to have found her feet when it comes to success in the wolrd of TV as she secured first acting appearance on Coronation Street when she was offered the role of Tina McIntyre after just her second audition as an actress. The talented actress beat 900 other people to the role on the soap and just two weeks later she stepped onto the cobbles and began her career. TV star Michelle Keegan may be earning mega money now but she will have to put in the overtime if she want to catch up with her husband Mark Wright. It was reported two years ago that Mark is now worth almost £14million as he continues to grow his incredible property empire. With an estimated combined net worth of around £20m, it's no wonder the pair splashed the cash on their dream home three years ago.

Last year, she had the starring role as Maya Stern in Netflix's Harlan Coben thriller Fool Me Once - which racked up more than 100 million views globally. MailOnline has contacted Michelle's representatives for comment. It comes after Mark revealed what his 'perfect' Father's Day will look like three months after welcoming his daughter Palma with wife Michelle. Posting content for Marks and Spencer ahead of Sunday, the brand ambassador detailed what he hopes will be served up to eat on the special day. 'I've only been a dad for three months, but this is what the perfect Father's Day looks like for me,' he told viewers. 'For breakfast, an unreal spread of fresh berries and croissants, pancakes and even waffles. With maple syrup, my favourite. Just like being at a five star hotel. 'For lunch imagine being spoilt with a best ever burger. That's exceptional.' The star also enjoyed a delicious hotdog made with one of the M&S Posh dog sausages. Moving onto the sweet treats, Mark joked: 'It's my first father's day and that means I deserve a treat. 'Collin the caterpillar? Yes please.' He teased: 'They're for the kids, but my baby she's not on solids yet so I'll take care of it.' Shouting off camera he added: 'Stay on the milks Palma!' He continued: 'Who doesn't love a fruit and nut bar too? Father's Day is my cheat day.' New dad Mark has revealed what his 'perfect' Father's Day will look three months after welcoming daughter Palma Michelle and Mark have been enjoying their time as parents and have been sharing small glimpses of Palma on their social media accounts Michelle and Mark have been enjoying their time as parents and have been sharing small glimpses of Palma on their social media accounts. It's believed the couple chose the name Palma because of their strong links to Mallorca, which has been their go-to holiday destination for years and the setting for their pregnancy reveal photoshoot. The celebrity couple and their daughter Palma, three months, are currently at the swanky £300-a-night SO/ Sotogrande Spa & Golf Resort Hotel. And she gave her followers a glimpse into the lavish trip, while flaunting her sensational figure in a number of summer dresses. Michelle posed up a storm in a plunging brown dress. Gushing over the look, she wrote: 'One of my fave dresses from this collection, so simple but yet so effective. I'm obsessed with the gold shell detail.' She also showed off her svelte waist in a strapless yellow crochet number, which she described as: 'The perfect dress for summer nights or a special occasion.' Michelle explained that the mint outfit was in fact a co-ord, telling followers: 'This colour is a WOW! And the asymmetrical hemline is really flattering. (It's a skirt and top so you have to buy separate ladies) Oh, and it's currently in the SALE!' The sun-soaked getaway is baby daughter Palma's first holiday abroad and Michelle marked the occasion with a holiday post on Thursday, revealing the little girl's sweet nickname. The former Coronation Street star captioned the post: 'Princess P's first family holiday'. The stunner, who celebrated her birthday earlier this week, looked sensational in a skimpy black bikini as she gazed adoringly at the little one while shielding from the sun beneath an umbrella. Michelle later slipped into a crochet dress while teasing a glimpse of her swimwear beneath. Beaming for the camera Michelle wore shades and a straw hat as she pushed Palma in her pram. Earlier in the week, doting parents Michelle and Mark were spotted out with their daughter in Marbella as they celebrated the actress' birthday. Michelle was cradling her little girl, three months, in her arms as they strolled along together - looking every inch the picture perfect family. The couple welcomed their first child together on March 6 and then announced the news on their respective Instagram pages a week later. Michelle looked lovely in a white lace co-ord from her Very collection, which included a white applique shirt and a pair of matching shorts. She boosted her frame with flip flop style heels and accessorised with gold hoop earrings, wearing her brunette hair in a low ponytail. Her daughter was wearing a sweet pale yellow two-piece.

Race Across The World 2025 winners revealed after nail-biting final dash
To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video The winners of BBC One's Race Across the World 2025 have been revealed following a thrilling conclusion. After travelling thousands of kilometres across China, Nepal and India, one pair claimed the £20,000 prize after reaching the final checkpoint in Kanniyakumari. The final leg was the closest the teams had been in 51 days, with just 19 minutes separating first and second place. However, for the first time in the show's history, a mother and son pairing have won after Caroline and Tom were declared winners following the 14,100km race across the world's largest continent, Asia. Sprinting to the finish line, sisters Elizabeth and Letitia, who have remained consistent throughout the race, came in second place. They were followed by teenage couple Fin and Sioned, while brothers Brian and Melvyn, came in fourth. It was a race to find a boat towards the fishing village of Arockiapuram and there, find the Vattakottai Fort where the last and final sign in book was waiting. As Caroline and Tom turned to the page to discover they had reached the final checkpoint in first place, they hugged, overcome with emotion. An emotional Caroline cried: 'We must never doubt ourselves again. Ever, ever, ever.' Writing their names in the book, Tom said: 'That's a really good feeling, I'm lost for words, I can't believe it. 51 days racing through countries I never thought I'd go to, I never thought we'd come this far, I never thought we'd achieve so much and I've never been prouder of my mum – she got me through it.' As sisters Elizabeth and Letitia turned the page to claim second place, Elizabeth said: 'Ah Tom and Caroline, so close, 19 minutes,' with Letitia adding: 'I'm proud of us.' Just 45 minutes behind the winners, Fin and Sioned arrived in third place. Fin said: 'We've done well.' He added: 'It would have been incredible to have come first, but obviously we can't all come first.. we've gone more than 12000km…' Sioned continued: 'It's been more than just the distance, it's been a journey for us.' Brian and Melvyn, who arrived in fourth place, only 3 hours and 5 minutes behind race winners, said: 'We've done very well actually. Really pleased for the guys that have won it. Beer? Desperately, and definitely!' The final episode saw Caroline and Tom began the last leg in the lead, 6 hours and 54 minutes ahead of Elizabeth and Letitia. They started from the 7th checkpoint, Panaji in Goa with just over 1000km to traverse across the southern Indian states to reach the finish line at the southernmost tip of India in Kanniyakumari. Arriving into Kanniyakumari by taxi, Tom said how nervous he was, and worried more when he exclaimed: 'I've just seen Fin and Sioned, I promise you, I have, oh no.' Getting caught in a traffic jam, Caroline and Tom were visibly despondent. Receiving their first instructions to reach the tip of India, Caroline and Tom raced through huge crowds of people trying to watch the incredible sunrise but with little time to appreciate the stunning views: 'It's a nice sunrise, bit hard to focus on, but it's nice.' Hot on Caroline and Tom's heels, Elizabeth and Letitia received the next instructions to proceed on foot to the front of Our Lady of Ransom Shrine. Not hesitating to ask multiple people for help, the teams made their way and discovered they must then take a boat to Arockiapuram fishing village. Caroline and Tom secured a boat for 1000 rupees, stressing that they were in a race and the need for speed to their driver. Still worried about having seen Fin and Sioned, Tom said: 'I still can't see Fin and Sioned, I don't know if they can see us.' The teams received a message instructing them to head on foot to the Vattakottai Fort. Running through the winding streets, trying to find the beach, Tom said: 'It's so far out of the way.' On reaching the entrance to the Fort, Caroline and Tom ran in with Caroline asking 'Can you see anyone else, Thomas?' and Tom replying; 'I don't see anyone.' The pair reached the book and discovered they had won the race of a lifetime and a prize of £20,000. Over the eight-part series, the four pairs have raced over 14,000km over 51 days. More Trending The teams have successfully journeyed across the world's largest continent, Asia, taking in three of its most diverse and fascinating nations – China, Nepal and India. They've had to navigate crowds, congestion and cultural barriers, as well as a multitude of vast ranging landscapes on an epic journey from The Great Wall of China in northeastern China all the way to the southernmost tip of India – Kanniyakumari – all without smartphones, internet access and bank cards, and armed only with the cash equivalent of flying the route. Following the final episode of Race Across the World, the teams will return for a heart-warming reunion celebration, which airs at 9pm on Wednesday 18th June on BBC One.
