Olivia Colman, Christian Bale, Richard Madden and Ben Whishaw were among the winners at this year's prestigious Golden Globe Awards.

Colman was honoured for the film The Favourite, and Bale won for playing ex‑US Vice‑President Dick Cheney in Vice.

Madden and Whishaw won TV awards for their roles in BBC dramas Bodyguard and A Very English Scandal respectively.

Bohemian Rhapsody, about Queen frontman Freddie Mercury, won two big awards, including one for its star Rami Malek.

The Golden Globes is the first major ceremony of the Hollywood awards season, and can often help a movie or a movie star in the race for the Oscars.

Christian Bale provided one of the night's most political moments when he thanked "Satan" for inspiration for his role in Vice.

Bale played Dick Cheney, who was vice‑president from 2001 to 2009 and is blamed by the film for many of the world's ills.

There was one award for Killing Eve, the unconventional crime drama written by Fleabag creator Phoebe Waller‑Bridge. That went to Sandra Oh, who plays Eve and was named best actress in a TV drama ‑ and also co‑hosted the ceremony in Los Angeles.

Musician Mark Ronson was another winner, sharing the award for best song with Lady Gaga for Shallow, their hit from the film A Star Is Born.

That was A Star Is Born's only win of the night, however, despite going into the ceremony with five nominations.
