David Tennant returned to host Sunday night’s event at the Bafta Awards, held in London’s Royal Festival hall.
The Doctor Who star kept audiences hooked for the second year in a row, making his entrance to The Proclaimers’ I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles) which aired on television on Sunday, February 16.
He quipped “walked 500 miles just to host one BAFTAs more” and didn’t shy away from addressing controversial topics in his opening remarks.
However one moment that got everyone talking was his interraction with Hollywood couple Kylie Jenner and Timothee Chalamet, with the Kardashians star there to support her boyfriend.
The Scottish actor made a quip about the recent viral Timothee Chalamet lookalike competition. “Here’s someone else who deserves a special mention.
“We’re very privileged tonight to be joined by the runner-up of New York’s recent Timothee Chalamet competition. Welcome to the Baftas young man,” joked Tennant amid erupted laughter.
He then turned his attention to Kylie, 27, who has been dating Timothee for two years. “But look, lovely attention to detail, you’re with a Kylie Jenner lookalike, well done,” to which Kylie mouthed ‘it’s me’ clearing any doubts.

The ceremony also included a live performance from Take That where they sang their 2008 hit Greatest Day, which sent fans into a frenzy.
The concept of the American reality star immersed in British culture was too much for some. One person wrote: “Didn’t ever think I’d see David Tennant and Kylie Jenner interact but here we are,” as someone else agreed adding, “Was not on my 2025 Bingo card For Kylie Jenner and a David Tennant Interaction.”
“For some reason David Tennant and Kylie Jenner interacting feels like it should be impossible. Like I feel they’re somehow from different realities and this is a crossover episode. I wonder if they’ve met before this. Has she seen Doctor Who?? I need to know,” voiced another.
Someone else quipped, “Something about Kylie Jenner and David Tennant meeting each other doesn’t sit right with me like they’re both in separate universes how has this happened.”
Another viewer said, “I need to know what the f**k kylie jenner thought of David Tennant walking around singing 500 miles terribly,” as another added, “The Baftas pull together the most random people. Kylie Jenner is sitting there in a room being serenaded by Gary Barlow and rubbing shoulders with THE Celia Imrie.”
One gushed, “I need to see the cam footage of Kylie Jenner watching this Take That performance,” as someone else agreed, echoing “screaming at the fact that Kylie Jenner is currently sat watching take that perform.”
