Dan Radcliffe Attends BAFTAs in London
Honors/AwardsAs we reported earlier, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix has been nominated for two awards at the British Academy of Film and Television Awards, with recognition in the “Special Visual Effects,” and “Production Design” categories. Those awards were presented tonight in London, England, with actor Dan Radcliffe (Harry Potter) in attendance (shown here with acclaimed actor Daniel Day – Lewis). UPDATE: Dan was set to present an award tonight, and news reports say the “Harry Potter star Radcliffe got one of the biggest cheers of the night from the crowd.” He said: “I’m very excited. I’ve never been to the Bafta’s before. This is great, even better than the Oscars because it’s British. I’m so excited about all these amazing people that turn up.” UPDATE 2: The awards have now been completed, however there is disappointing news, as OotP lost out on both their nominations, with wins going to The Golden Compass for Visual Effects and Atonement for Production Design. UPDATE 3: Thanks to our Order partner DanRadcliffe.com, you can now see video of Dan at the ceremony tonight. You can see more of Dan at this event, as well as nominated actress Julie Christie (Madam Rosmerta) here in our galleries.
The awards are being broadcast in the UK on the BBC, with the US to see the broadcast of the show on cable channel BBC America tonight at 8pm (ET). Actor Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy) is also among those due to attend, as he will be presenting an award. Anyone who can capture video of the ceremony, please send it in!

cool I love both Daniel Day Lewis and Daniel Radcliffe, both very good british actors. And Jason will be there too- cool hes such a handsome hottie, Lucky Helen she gets to play his wife! extemely eager for more HBP news! and PICS!!!
aww he looks so adorable
Em daniel is about 5’6 or 5’7 from what all his biography say so i dont no if u would consdier that short i kinda do but his acting and his eyes(faints) totally make up 4 it!
Good Luck to all those nominated
I don’t like Daniels hair…his hair is the best in POA.He was really cute back then,and he’s cute now,but hair…come on!
I assume the brilliant Dan Day-Lewis was offered the Voldemort part as he gets offered everything else !
Can you imagine the power he would have brought to that role !
Wow, I’m tickled it’s on BBC America! I’ll be watching and rooting for HP to win!
Oooh I wonder why Dan’s there… maybe he’s presenting? And that picture of the two Daniels is quite hilarious, poor Mr Radcliffe looks a little short doesn’t he ;)
I’m not sure if I’ll be watching the BAFTAs or the Grammys tonight… maybe flicking back and forth would be a good idea… :)
I’m taller than Dan, but I’m willing to “overlook” that because I ADORE this guy. He has a wonderful sense of humor and that just does it for me.
LUV YA Dan!
OMG my two favorites Daniels together!!! Both look great, our Dan has become a very handsome young man. I really like his hair. In the pics from Gloucerster filming it is combed different because he is playing Harry so he is in character, and it looked great for Harry, and it’s very good too. And yes, Daniel Day-Lewis is a very very tall man, and he is very very thin too, he is not very proporcional. I don’t know if he was asked to play Voldemort, but he is one of the few important British actors who are not in the HP movies. I don’t know what role he could play in the last movie…
Alfonso Cuaron was also presenting an award (adapted screenplay).
Oh my!, Dan looks good…and cute…and shorty… Sorry, I just couldn’t resist :)
I’m very happy Dan got one of the biggest cheers of the night! It’s incredible it’s the first time he attends the Baftas, I remember previous years other HP actors attended and I guess he was busy filming. I hope he has a great time.
Aw roonwit I would love to see a pic of Dan and Alfonso, I haven’t seen him together since PoA times! I know Cuaron attended several HP premieres after that but there were not pics.
Daniel Day Lewis comes off rather poorly compared to young Dan and compared to how he used to look. It’s depressing how old he looks- he was beautiful when he was younger. On the other hand, i hope he never goes for cosmetic surgery like Robert redford and other male stars have done-they , like the women , just look so weird or unnatural.
I’m sorry to tell you all Julie Christie has not win the Bafta for best actress, Marion Cotillard won it, I’ve heard she is great so I’m happy for her too.
And I have to say our Dan is the best, you know how they show interviews from the red carpet and they always ask what are they wearing. Well, all the actors were acting so big headed answering very famous and expensive designers. Then they asked Dan and he answered: “a shirt, a jacket and some trousers”. I love the way he said that, Dan has a great sense of humor. After watching that my wife has become a fan of him. Btw, radcakesfan I agree with you, my wife told me Alan Rickman has done some surgery on his face… and I was looking at Julie Christie, she is older and looks fantastic without any surgery.
Daniel Day-Lewis would make a formidable Fenrir Greyback. Too bad he is likely cut from the movies :(
Hahh loved the bit at the beginning when Dan said something to the effect of “Hello, and welcome to the BAFTAs.”
I was like ‘HI DAN’ to my tv screen xD.
Awwww, the little fella. :D
And Daniel Day-Lewis is about 6’2”, so, yeah, he towers over our Dan.
Dan is presenting the Michael Balkan award for services to the British film industry, which I think it is very appropiate for him to present because Daniel is one of the people who has done the greatest services to the British film industry with the HP movies. Giving him to present this award is a way to recognize that too. Brendan, Greyback will be in HBP but other actor was casted. Daniel Day-Lewis won the Bafta for best actor, but I agree with radcakesfan about his looks.
