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.
