SEAN BEAN: Thank you very much, everyone. Thanks, BAFTA. This means a great deal to me. I’m really honoured and it means such a lot to me.
I don’t think I’d be in this situation without the great mind and the great writing of Jimmy McGovern. It was an inspiration to me. I had worked with him before and he’s an incredible man who shines a light on some of the darker aspects of our society.
I would like to thank Colin McEwan, and Donna Malloy, the producers of the show, and my good friend Gary Armstrong. He’ll know why. And my wife Ashley.
I would just like to say thank you, I’m really, really honoured, and absolutely delighted. Thank you very much.
