SAG Awards 2018: Where can I watch the awards ceremony in the UK?

The Screen Actors Guild Awards, also known as the SAG Awards, is taking place later this evening.

Whilst it is being filmed in the United States, it will be airing in the UK at 1am on Monday 22 January.

It is the 24th SAG awards, and is the first time in history that it will have a host, with actress Kristen Bell taking the spot.

But where can people in the UK watch it online?

British watchers can head straight to the SAG website (sagwards.org) to watch it online.

The red carpet can also be watched on their Facebook and Twitter page as the stars enter the ceremony.

The SAG awards are the only event to offer an award for the entire cast of a film, called the  SAG Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture.

Critics use the winners of this to predict who will win an Oscar, as no film has ever won a Best Picture Oscar without being nominated for the SAG award.

The nominees for this year are The Big Sick, Get Out, Lady Bird, Mudbound and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri.

It is a shock for films Dunkirk, The Post, and The Shape of Water which were all Oscar contenders.

Morgan Freeman has been named as the 2017 SAG Life Achievement Award recipient, with previous winners including Debbie Reynolds, Clint Eastwood and Julie Andrews. 

TV Show Big Little Lies and Movie Three Billboards Outside of Ebbing, Missouri have a number of nominations in different categories.
