For those of you wondering, it was eligible for the award on the basis that it was co-produced by British production company Film4.
The wins for both Barry Keoghan and Kerry Condon have boosted their hopes of securing Oscars next month.
However, it seems both were more than happy with their successes at the BAFTAs, with Barry paying homage to his Dublin 1 roots.
