The pair led the star-studded red carpet arrivals on Wednesday with Doctor Who star Gatwa sporting a floor-length shoulder-padded coat look alongside Scott in a matching cream linen suit paired paired with a silk pink shirt.

During the ceremony, Gatwa’s Sex Education co-star Jodie Turner-Smith, and Phoebe Waller-Bridge who starred alongside Scott in hit TV series Fleabag, were among those who gave a toast to the cover stars.

The Bear star Jeremy Allen White and music supergroup Boygenius – comprising of Phoebe Bridgers, Julien Baker, and Lucy Dacus – were also honoured by The Bear star Ebon Moss-Bachrach and Dan Levy of hit TV sitcom Schitt’s Creek.

The after-party featured a live performance from Brit rising star winners Flo, as well as DJ sets by Black Coffee, Donnie Sunshine and Lexii Thomas.

The red carpet saw Gatwa’s Sex Education co-star Asa Butterfield sporting a lime green suit, while Games Of Thrones star Maisie Williams wore a netted blue and silver dress, alongside Loki’s Sophia Di Martino in a black tuxedo-style jacket over a matching black dress.

Normal People’s Daisy Edgar-Jones was sporting blonde locks paired with a plunging fitted white top and a gold chain, while British actor Joe Alwyn, who ended his long-term relationship with US pop star Taylor Swift this year, wore a black leather jacket with suit trousers and a black tie.

Other British stars in attendance was Match Of The Day host Gary Lineker in a grey suit alongside his son George, documentary-maker Louis Theroux sporting a navy tuxedo as well as Being Human star Russell Tovey sporting a similar tuxedo look.
