Millie Mackintosh Flaunts Abs at BAFTAs as Adolescence Dominates
Millie Mackintosh Shows Abs at BAFTAs; Adolescence Wins Big

Millie Mackintosh showcased her toned abs as she reunited with fellow former Made In Chelsea star Louise Thompson at the British Academy Television Awards on Sunday evening. The 36-year-old former reality star wore a skimpy gold co-ord that highlighted her gym-honed midriff at the Royal Festival Hall in London.

Millie, who split from husband Hugo Taylor earlier this year, accessorised with simple gold jewellery and a matching bag. Louise, also 36, opted for a stylish white silk dress with black lace trim and thin straps. The pair have remained close friends since their time on the show together over a decade ago.

Adolescence Dominates the Ceremony

Stephen Graham's acclaimed Netflix drama Adolescence dominated the British Academy Television Awards at London's Royal Festival Hall, hosted by Greg Davies. Stephen, 52, won Best Actor for his portrayal of a father dealing with the aftermath of a brutal crime involving his teenage son. This marked a landmark moment for Graham, who had previously missed out on seven nominations for shows such as Help, Time, and This Is England '90.

The four-part Netflix series received a staggering 11 nominations and set a record for the most wins for a series, also taking home Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress, and Limited Drama. Created by Stephen Graham and writer Jack Thorne, Adolescence tells the story of British teenager Jamie Miller (Owen Cooper), who is found guilty of murdering a female classmate after being influenced by online manosphere content. Each episode is filmed in a single continuous shot and has been widely praised for addressing topics such as online radicalisation and misogyny.

Owen Cooper, aged 16, made history as the youngest winner of Best Supporting Actor at both the Golden Globes and Emmy Awards, continuing his award-winning streak by taking home the BAFTA for Best Supporting Actor. Christine Tremarco, who played Owen's mother in the show, won Best Supporting Actress in a surprise result, beating co-star Erin Doherty, who had previously won the Golden Globe and Emmy. Stephen wiped away tears as Christine took the stage and said: 'I hold this BAFTA high to Hannah Walters and Stephen Graham, thank you so much.'

Other Winners and Highlights

Code Of Silence won Best Drama, while the Lead Actress BAFTA went to Narges Rashidi for Passenger 951. Amandaland, starring Lucy Punch, won the BAFTA for Scripted Comedy, though Lucy and co-star Philippa Dunne missed out on the Actress in a Comedy gong, which went to Katherine Parkinson for Here We Go.

The Celebrity Traitors won Best Reality, days after the BBC announced the celebrity line-up for the second series of the hit spin-off. Comedian Alan Carr was recognised in the public-voted memorable moment category after breaking down in tears during the series.

During the ceremony, the documentary Gaza: Doctors Under Attack won the Current Affairs category after controversy over the BBC's decision not to broadcast it due to impartiality concerns. The documentary was later picked up by Channel 4. Journalist Ramita Navai criticised the BBC while accepting the award. Channel 4 also received recognition for its reporting on the Iran conflict, while historian Simon Schama won for his BBC Two documentary The Road to Auschwitz.

The factual series category went to Channel 4's See No Evil, which examined the Church of England abuse scandal surrounding serial abuser John Smyth and contributed to renewed scrutiny of safeguarding failures within the institution.
