Another weekend, another award show. This time, it's the British Film and Television Arts Awards, which is the British equivalent of the Oscars. It's also one of the last important stops before the Academy Awards.
And just like every award show before the Oscars, the results serve as a potential prediction for the big show. Once again, all eyes were on The King's Speech, which could be cemented as the Best Picture front-runner with another big victory at the BAFTA's.
So, what can we expect at the Oscars, according to the BAFTA crystal ball?

Nothing all that surprising. The King's Speech took home the top honor of Best Picture, bringing it's BAFTA win total to seven. Colin Firth won Best Actor for the second consecutive year (last year for A Single Man) making him the first to get back-to-back BAFTA wins since Rod Steiger in 1968. The King's Speech swept almost all the major categories, including Best Original Screenplay.
The Social Network did get some BAFTA love, with Best Director going to David Fincher and Best Adapted Screenplay awarded to Aaron Sorkin. Natalie Portman continued her Black Swan domination with another Best Actress win, but wasn't at the ceremony to collect the award. The reason was bluntly stated by Darren Aronofsky as he accepted it on her behalf: "She's knocked up."
Inception was not forgotten at the BAFTA's, winning three awards: Sound, Special Visual Effects and Production Design.
For the wizard fans out there, you'll be happy to know that the Harry Potter Films were presented with an award for Outstanding British Contribution to Cinema.
