And I thought she did a great job. “There were always those moments at these award ceremonies where you think you're playing to the home crowd because they're all your colleagues in the business and we've all been there. “I mean, obviously, I've never been asked to host the BAFTAs,” Richard laughed.“But those moments where you're on stage and you go a bit clammy palmed because you wonder whether or not your gag has landed in the right place.“And there's this sort of the waft of tumbleweed coming through the room, you know, or a deafening silence.  “But I thought she did a great job, you know,” he added.
