After arriving with a dog in tow, BAFTAs 2024 host David Tennant gave a six-minute monologue cracking jokes about Saltburn, the acting industry, and the upcoming presidential race.
"It's obviously been a tumultuous year for so many in the film industry with the writers' strike and the actors' strike, but I've been chatting to BAFTA and asking, 'Is the future for screenwriters and actors looking rosy?'" Tennant says in the clip above. "And I can tell you, they said 'Aye!' Although they do spell that "AI", so I don't..."
A short while later Tennant also gets a solid dig in about the upcoming U.S. elections.
"Poor Things, ladies and gentlemen," he says, introducing the movie, "where a child's brain is put into an adult's body. And later this year, one of those may even be re-elected president."
