The BAFTAs have returned, with some big wins (Succession! The Underground Railroad!) and some star-studded names.

But two comedians may have stolen the show, in just two minutes. Lee Mack and Chris McCausland, both well-versed in stand-up comedy, made for an ideal, hilarious presenting duo at last night's awards.

The television awards had Mack and McCausland squabble and banter as they presented the nominations for best female performance in a comedy program. The audience was nothing but delighted.
