It was a memorable evening at the BAFTA Film Awards yesterday (Sunday, February 22), with no shortage of upsets.

Scottish film I Swear, about a Galashiels man with Tourette’s syndrome, won two awards - Best Casting and a Best Actor trophy for Robert Aramayo who played real-life hero John Davidson.

Aramayo, who beat Hollywood royalty including Timothée Chalamet, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ethan Hawke, and Michael B Jordan to the award, walked the red carpet along with co-star Peter Mullan, who lost out in the Best Supporting Actor category, and Davidson himself.
