BAFTA got plenty *wrong* this year, including an unforgiveably bad
edited sequence of Terry Gilliam film clips when he was given the
Fellowship (BAFTA's biggest award), but I think the In Memorium
sequence is much better handled than this year's Oscars.

Obviously, as it's British, the line-up's a little different (no Don
LaFontaine here either), I prefer using select dialogue clips as we
get here.

Mind you, the worst bit of the Oscars for me were the actorly
soliliquies. I found them so gut-wrenchingly saccharine that I
actually changed channels and only switched back when I thought the
award was about to be announced. I *really* did this. It was
abominable and if they continue it, I fear I'll never be able to watch
again (not that the Oscars are that easy to watch here in the UK, with
the Academy selling them to Sky and Sky putting them on one of its
premium movie channels - only repeating them later on "basic" Sky
One).
