In this part of the galaxy we know her best as L3-37, Lando Calrissian’s partner and co-pilot of the Millennium Falcon but out there in the ‘real world’ Phoebe Waller-Bridge is known for being the writer and star of Fleabag and the supremely brilliant Killing Eve, and it’s the latter which is grabbing all the attention tonight at the BAFTA’s.
The show has walked away with a clutch of richly deserved awards, and this is how Waller-Bridge accepted the big one, the BAFTA for Best Drama Series.
