AJ Odudu flaunts her figure in stunning cut-out dress on the BAFTA red carpet

AJ Odudu 35, looked nothing short of sensational on the red carpet as she arrived at the BAFTAs on Sunday night.

The new Big Brother presenter, who admitted she’d had a very early start after partying all night at the Eurovision Song Contest in Liverpool, oozed glamour as she playfully posed, blowing kisses and turning for the camera in different angles.

On her journey over to the glitzy event, she told her Instagram followers: ‘Hello darlings today I am off to BAFTA.

‘I’m so excited slash proud of myself because Eurovision was just amazing, but I was in a kebab shop at 5am and at 5.15 I was setting off back to London so shout out to the glam squad who have really glued me back together and made today possible because I’m off to BAFTA now with Lancomein one piece. Get in!’

AJ wowed in a halter neck white dress, with cut out panelling that showcased her petite frame.

The dress by Mônot had a floor length skirt, with a thigh high slit that ran up the back.

The stunner, completed the glamorous look with a simple silver bracelet and hoops and added extra height to her frame with strappy heels.

Sporting a glowy palette of make-up with a glossy lip, she wore her raven tresses in loose waves.

Kate Winslet was awarded Best Actress for her critically-acclaimed performance in I Am Ruth, and during her speech she paid tribute to her co-star and daughter Mia Threapleton.

One of the big winners proved to be BBC’s runaway hit The Traitors, which scooped the Reality And Constructed Factual award, while host Claudia Winkleman won Entertainment Performance for fronting the show.

While Anne-Marie Duff was awarded Supporting Actress for Bad Sisters, the viewer-voted BAFTA for the The P&O Cruises Memorable Moment Award was given the moment Paddington Bear enjoyed tea with The Queen during her Platinum Jubilee concert.

Ben, who won critical acclaim for his performance as NHS junior Adam Kay in This Is Going To Hurt, was awarded the Best Actor prize, beating out competition including Gary Oldman, Martin Freeman, Cillian Murphy and Chaske Spencer.

On stage, the actor, 42, said: ‘Oh goodness me, I really didn’t think that would happen and I love so much the actors in this category.’

Whishaw also said ‘everybody in the show is just mind-blowing’ and ‘most of all thank you, Adam Kay, for writing this wonderful role. I’m very humbled, and blessed.’

The medical drama is based on Kay’s book This Is Going To Hurt: Secret Diaries Of A Junior Doctor which chronicles his work training to be a doctor in the NHS.

The night also saw Sir Mo Farah win for his BBC One documentary The Real Mo Farah which revealed he had been illegally trafficked to the UK as a child.

Collecting the best single documentary prize, the four-time Olympic champion dedicated the award to ‘children who are being trafficked’.

In his speech, he said: ‘The kids have no say at all, they are just kids and no child should ever go through what I did, I hope my story shows they aren’t alone, we are in it together.’

The 40-year-old thanked the team at the BBC because it ‘wasn’t easy’ to film and he wouldn’t have been able to it ‘without them’, while his wife Tania Nell said it was the couples children who ’empowered’ them to tell the story.

At the start of the show, Siobhan McSweeney won her first BAFTA TV award for Best Female Performance in a comedy programme, for playing Sister Michael, the eye-rolling principal of the show’s Our Lady Immaculate College in the Channel 4 programme Derry Girls.

The reality and constructed factual award was given to psychological adventure show, The Traitors, and collecting the prize, presenter Claudia Winkleman, 51, said she and the team are ‘blown away by this, thank you so much’.

Things got even better for Claudia, as later that evening she received the Entertainment Performance award for hosting The Traitors.

Lenny Rush took home the award for Best Male Comedy Performance for his lauded performance in Am I Being Unreasonable?

Anne-Marie Duff won the Supporting Actress Award for the comedy Bad Sisters, said she was ‘completely shocked’ and thanked the cast and production team.

It was a huge night for the Irish Apple TV+ drama, which also won the award for Drama Series.

Adeel Akhtar received Best Supporting Actor for his role in Sherwood, and he thanked his mum for ‘smuggling’ him into youth theatre when his father wanted him to be a lawyer, and his wife who ‘seven years ago agreed to go on a date with me’, before referencing diversity and inclusion in his speech.

The BAFTAs also paid tribute to stars including talk show host Jerry Springer, Strictly Come Dancing’s Len Goodman and presenter and drag queen Paul O’Grady who have died over the last year.

Doctor Who actor Bernard Cribbins, comedian Barry Humphries, Hi-De-Hi! actress Ruth Madoc and Emmerdale star Dale Meeks were also named by the ceremony.

In a shocking upset, The Masked Singer beat Ant And Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway and Strictly Come Dancing to win Best Entertainment Programme.

Presented by Doctor Who returnees David Tennant and Catherine Tate, Joe Lycett Vs Beckham: Got Your Back At Xmas won the TV Features award, thought the host was not present to accept,

The Memorable Moment TV BAFTA was given to Paddington Bear having tea with the late Queen during the Platinum Jubilee: Party At The Palace celebrations on the BBC.

The Daytime award was given to The Repair Shop: A Royal Visit which saw the King, then Prince of Wales, take part.

Comedy legend Meera Syla placed a Bindi on her Bafta Fellowship award after taking to the stage to accept the coveted honour.
