Wins for Comer, Bean and Big Zuu at the Bafta Awards

After two years of remote ceremonies, the Bafta TV Awards returned for a jubilant, fully in-person celebration of British television on Sunday night.

Richard Ayoade hosted proceedings - and he wasted no time making the obligatory Will Smith joke - on a night that saw prison series Time, carer drama Help and rapper and TV presenter Big Zuu emerge as the biggest winners.

Time star Sean Bean won Best Leading Actor for his portrayal of an English teacher who ends up behind bars. The BBC show also won Best Miniseries. While Bean wasn't there to accept his award, a message was read out for him that paid tribute to his costar Stephen Graham, who was nominated for Best Supporting Actor.

Big Zuu took home the award for Best Entertainment Performance in his cookery show Big Zuu's Big Eats. The programme also won in the Features category.
