'King' and 'Queen' rule at BAFTAs

'The Last King of Scotland' and 'The Queen' dominate this year's awards.

Feb 12 2007

'The Queen' made its mark at this year's BAFTAs, taking home best film and the best actress award for Helen Mirren's remarkable performance as Elizabeth II.

But Liz was not the only monarch winning awards as 'The Last King of Scotland' was named best British film as well as winning best adapted screenplay and best actor for Forest Whitaker's terrifying portrayal of Idi Amin.

The rest of the awards were spread pretty evenly elsewhere, with 'Pan's Labyrinth' winning three BAFTAs and 'Little Miss Sunshine', 'Children of Men' and 'United 93' all taking home two.
