Sue Perkins irritated me with her sexist comments within about twelve seconds. Its now on in the background and I'm following via twitter. Picture keeps going weird as previously mentioned and there seems to be a little bit of cut-and-shut editing between the winners speeches and the announcements of the next categories. (Although I am watching on the iPlayer so it may have buffered and not reset itself properly)
...and the VO is frankly irritating.

Very bizarre editing, going straight into awards with no intros from the host It’s like we are watching edited highlights.
Also the young people who make TV probably loved Love Island, but 90 year old Doris who watches BBC One on a Sunday evening doesn’t, so choosing Iain Stirling as the voiceover for such a prestigious event is a mistake.

I'm 24 years old and I had to google who the announcer was. I had no idea he works on Love Island.
I guess his choice was to add a few more 'cheap' laughs during the somewhat clunky bit of getting the award winners on stage, but like you say, I think it was a poor choice.

Is the editing for the BAFTAs usually this shoddy? I know there’s a very tight turnaround before broadcast, but the sound editing is pretty terrible, and there’s been a few dodgy and wobbly camera shots.
As others have mentioned, the jarring cuts between the awards make it feel like we are watching a highlights show.
John Bishops introduction to this award makes me think he would have been a far better choice of host than Sue Perkins.
