Bafta said they are looking into a big security problem after someone who wasn't supposed to be there got onto the stage during the best film speech.

With Poor Things director Yorgo Lanthimos inexplicably left out of the race, a category snub this year for Christopher Nolan would absolutely have sent a signal to the British-American director.
