Ralph Fiennes took home the Best Actor award (in partnership with Ambassador Theatre Group) while Natasha Richardson won Best Actress award (in partnership with Christian Louboutin) for their roles in Anthony & Cleopatra at the National Theatre.
The red carpet was graced by many UK stars including radio presenter Maya Jama, Rita Ora, Suki Waterhouse and Stella McCartney. Floral patterns were popular this year, perfectly matching the wall of flowers the VIPs posed against.
