They were closely followed by Netflix comedy-drama series Beef, with five, at the Los Angeles bash.

Three stars of HBO's media dynasty drama Succession - Sarah Snook, 36, Kieran Culkin, 41, and British actor Matthew Macfayden, 49 - all bagged acting gongs.

Kieran, who was playboy Roman in the hit series, celebrated his victory by planting a kiss on his on-screen father, British-born star Brian Cox, 77.
