4. Salma Hayek Trolls The Best Actor Nominees

BBC

If you didn't think you could like Salma Hayek any more than you already do, she delivered one of the night's most memorable - and hilarious - moments when presenting the Best Actor BAFTA.

When she came to the stage, she said, "In this very important and historical year for women, I am here on this legendary stage to celebrate men."

And when it came for Hayek to announce the winner of the award, she went full-troll by announcing Frances McDormand as the winner, before finally revealing the real recipient to be Gary Oldman.

In a fairly down-the-line, predictable ceremony, Hayek's cheeky interjection created a moment both entertaining and enormously relevant, making worldwide headlines within hours.
