Oscars 2021 British winners: Anthony Hopkins, Daniel Kaluuya and Emerald Fennell

The Telegraph published this video item, entitled “Oscars 2021 British winners: Anthony Hopkins, Daniel Kaluuya and Emerald Fennell” – below is their description.

Anthony Hopkins became the oldest man to win Best Actor at the Academy Awards in a stripped-back, sanitised ceremony from a train station in Los Angeles which rewarded British actors, broke barriers for women of colour and attacked police brutality.

In an anti-climatic ending to a largely muted ceremony, the 83-year-old Welshman was not in Los Angeles to pick up his prize and did not appear by video link to give an acceptance speech. The award was received on his behalf by the Academy and the credits started rolling.

Daniel Kaluuya and Emerald Fennell will be taking awards back to Britain, but Olivia Colman and Vanessa Kirby missed out.
