THE winners of the 2022 Bafta Scotland award were announced at a ceremony on Sunday evening.
Outlander star Sam Heughan and Peter Capaldi were among the winners on the night.
The former received the Scotland Audience Award whilst Capaldi was presented with the Outstanding Contribution to Film & Television prize.
Capaldi, who has starred in the likes of Doctor Who and political satire The Thick Of It, gave a nod to his fellow actors in his acceptance speech.

He said: “I just want to say, actors are brilliant. And it’s great when you get an award and it’s all like this and everything’s going really well.
“But for a lot of actors, it’s not going well. And from day-to-day, from week-to-week, it can be really tough, and you can’t get through the door and you can’t get out the door sometimes, so I just want them to know that sometimes the stars align and you get lucky, and that’s what happened to me.”
Elsewhere, Dougray Scott won the award for Actor Television for his leading role in Irvine Welsh’s Crime.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
