Hosted by Melvyn Bragg, The South Bank Sky Arts Awards – which celebrated its 20th anniversary this year –  was held at The Savoy in London on Sunday 5 June and honoured the very best of British culture and achievement.

Visual Art nominee #lynetteyiadomboakye and celebrities Frank Skinner, Twiggy Lawson, Lenny Henry, Isaac Julian and Benjamin Clementine arrived in chic Parisian style in a fleet of chauffeur-driven #ds5 cars.

At the prestigious star-studded ceremony, Eddie Izzard was presented with an Outstanding Achievement award by Lenny Henry and guests were treated to a world premiere performance by Tim Minchin from the new musical Groundhog Day.
