Olivier Awards 2024: Haydn Gwynne fans slam 'shameful' ITV for cutting moving moment late star's son accepted her posthumous Best Supporting Actress gong six months after her shock death


Gwynne - who died in October aged 66 - was granted the posthumous honour for her performance as Stanley Baldwin in When Winston Went to War.

Snook - best known for her starring role in HBO series Succession - scooped the award for her mesmerising one-woman performance in a new West End production of Oscar Wilde's The Picture Of Dorian Gray. Adapted and directed by Sydney Theatre Company's artistic director Kip Williams, the play has already had successful runs in Adelaide, Auckland and Melbourne with actress Eryn Jean Norvill starring. Former Strictly Come Dancing judge Arlene Phillips was also among Sunday evening's roll call, with the professional dancer and collaborator Jamie Cousins on hand to collect the award for Best Theatre Choreographer in long-running West End hit Guys & Dolls.
