“If anything, if I fall upon hard times, I can sell this,” says a surprised Awkwafina winning for her role in breakout comedy drama The Farewell, one of last year most loved films after it premiered at Sundance. This is a big win for the comedian and should help push her into the best actress category at next month’s Oscars.

This was not a category with a clear frontrunner yet still this feels like a surprise victory for Taron Egerton playing Elton John in Rocketman, beating out Daniel Craig, Eddie Murphy and Leonardo DiCaprio. It’s less of a surprise given that the HFPA did give Bohemian Rhapsody best picture last year.

Another one of the night’s most easily predictable categories but still quite the win for Brad Pitt given that it also includes Pacino, Hanks, Hopkins and Pesci. He takes time to thank LDC (Leonardo DiCaprio) which is his nickname then for his famous pals? He said he wanted to bring his mum but whenever he is pictured next to a woman he’s rumored to be dating her. Cut to Jennifer Aniston. Which is mean but also so Globes.

Even those who understandably loathed Joker would find it hard to fault many of its technical achievements, including a moody, atmospheric score from breakout composer Hildur Guðnadóttir who won out in a typically male-dominated category .

And much to the displeasure of Amazon, backstage,Phoebe Waller-Bridgehas stayed firm on there being no more fleabag in the foreseeable future

“I haven’t changed my mind about season three. It feels more and more about being the right decision. (These awards shows) are just beautiful goodbyes. But there’s been so many goodbyes every time. ”

Another win that matches up to critical acclaim after Fleabagand Succession also winning out in their respective categories. Chernobyl was easily the most loved choice here and the HFPA is unusually on point with their small screen picks tonight.

This one makes sense given that she was the starriest star in the category although it would have been nice to see one of the actors from Unbelievable up there. As always, Williams is an eloquent and intelligent speech-giver and she uses this time to talk about the importance of choice, especially for women. “Women when it is time to vote please do so in your self-interest,” she says. “It’s what men have been doing for years which is why the world looks so much like them but don’t forget we are the largest voting body in this country.” Oof – one of the night’s best speeches.

Ooh, as Mendes himself says, this is “a big surprise”, beating out Scorsese and Tarantino for his first world war drama which has gathered steam, fast, since its late premiere near the end of last year.

It’s a technically astonishing film but one that most did not see coming and certainly makes this a more interesting race to keep an eye on over the next month.
