The Golden Globes were awarded tonight - check out the list below for a full count of who won what. Numbers-wise, it was a battle between The Banshees Of Inisherin and Everywhere All At Once, with the latter just winning.

The first award of the night went to Ke Huy Quan for Everything Everywhere All At Once. Ke, who won fame early in life thanks to Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom and The Goonies, was unable to find work for years as studios were uninterested in hiring Asian actors, so this is a huge breakthrough for him. He told us that he wants the legacy of the film to be people showing more kindness and respect to each other.

Instead of a red carpet, the Globes had a grey carpet this year, which is far more flattering to celebrities' outfits. Stars in attendance included Anya Taylor Joy in a slender yellow dress, Jessica Chastain in spiderweb beige, and Billy Porter, never knowingly underdressed, in a deep red velvet gown. Margot Robbie was pretty in pink, Barbie-style, and Michelle Yeoh wore a slimline pewter and black number which left her arms free in case she was needed for any emergency action scenes.

Why did the Globes disappear last year? Awards were still given but without the usual glitz and glamour as controversy struck the organisers, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, when it was revealed that it had no black members. It has since made changes, but not everyone is satisfied with its approach, and some actors have still chosen not to attend tonight.
