Comedians Romesh Ranganathan and Rob Beckett will be back to host the proceedings, following a warm reception to their hilarious work last year.

Beckett said: "Romesh and I are absolutely buzzing to be back hosting the BAFTAs. We’ve not seen or spoken to each other since last year when we hosted so it will be good to catch up.

"It’s a real privilege to continually get work together even though our friendship is fake and completely fabricated for commercial gain."

Ranganathan added: "I really thought I’d done enough last year to be asked to host it solo this time, but hosting it with Rob again is also an honour I suppose."
