Olivia Dean has been the big winner at the 2026 BRIT Awards, as the ceremony relocated to Manchester for the first time ever.
The hitmaker had led the nominations with five gongs, and dominated the ceremony with wins including Album Of The Year, Best Pop Act and Artist Of The Year.
Jack Whitehall returned as host for the first time since 2021, and led to ITV censors being quick off the mark with jokes covering all manner of topics from Peter Mandelson and Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor to the controversy-filled BAFTAs.
Harry Styles also made his long-awaited return to the stage for the first time since 2023, ahead of the release of his new album on Friday.
Ten-time Grammy Award winning artist and producer Mark Ronson, 50, received the Outstanding Contribution to Music Award, before taking to the stage to perform.
