Though the London Critics' Circle had to hold its event virtually again this year, there was plenty to celebrate — especially if you worked on Jane Campion's The Power Of The Dog, which was awarded the lion's share of the trophies.

Dog nabbed Film, Actor, Director and Supporting Actor, making it the big winner of the evening.

It was a good night all round for Netflix, which also saw The Lost Daughter's Olivia Colman win again, and Ruth Negga for Passing (while writer/director Rebecca Hall won Breakthrough Filmmaker for her directorial debut).

Elsewhere, Ryûsuke Hamaguchi's Drive My Car did well, winning two awards.
