Stop reading right now if you’re planning on watching a delayed broadcast of this year’s Oscars on TV this evening. The 85th Academy Awards ceremony – this year presented by Seth “Family Guy” MacFarlane – has just wrapped in Los Angeles, capping off another season of  black-tie awards events, envelope openings and overblown acceptance speeches.

The complete list of winners can be read below, but in short these are the end results – quite an equal spread of awards love. In terms of surprises, Zero Dark Thirty’s Jessica Chastain lost out, while Brave rode the Pixar name all the way to the Best Animated Feature award.
