Comic Tom Allen, 38, on co-hosting the Bafta red carpet, potential fashion disasters and handing Leonardo DiCaprio Twiglets. Well, the amazing AJ Odudu and I are co-hosts and, in practical terms, it basically means talking to people as they get out of their cars. It’s a really nice job because people are full of excitement and nerves and the ceremony hasn’t happened yet, so everything is possible and they’re a bit flustered.
Nicola Coughlan lost a shoe as she got out of her car at the TV Baftas last year. She was very funny about it. Sometimes the big ceremony can seem like the party you’re not invited to, whereas the red carpet is a lot more human.
We’ll also be hoovering the red carpet before people arrive. Obviously, I’d like to get Gaga. And Leo [Leonardo DiCaprio] would be great.
Maybe I’ll have an array of crisps? ‘Here! Leo! Do you want a Twiglet?’ Because a lot of people always ask them ‘how does it feel to be nominated?’ whereas if you ask something a little off-centre, like ‘what’s your favourite crisp?’, you can sometimes get more of an insight into who they are as people. It’s very hard, isn’t it, to be cool-faced with someone like Will Smith, who I’ve looked up to since I was, like, 10. And Judi Dench.
I’ve never met her but everyone says how nice she is. Other kids were into superheroes but Mrs Brown was my superhero growing up. And I’d love to chat to Helen Mirren or Meryl Streep.
Did I mention I was gay?Oh, it changes. I’ve got a bit posh lately. I like a salt and black pepper one and I also quite like a truffle crisp, which is terrible to say, isn’t it? So indulgent.
Well, that is so kind of you to ask. I’m weighing up a couple of options. I really like a traditional white tie and tails.

Wilson Chapman editorCandle Media co-CEOs Kevin Mayer and Tom Staggs have been making waves in Hollywood for the past year as they hunt for content assets to acquire with the help of a bankroll from private executive giant Blackstone.The pair has mostly kept quiet about the venture, but Mayer sat down this month at the SXSW conference and festival in Austin, Texas, for a keynote session that featured his most expansive remarks to date on the new-model studio that he and Staggs are trying to build.In the conversation with MediaLink CEO Michael Kassan that was moderated by Variety co-editor-in-chief Cynthia Littleton, Mayer answered a number of key questions about how Candle Media intends to function — for one, it’s not a holding company nor an operating entity — and he detailed the vision for “social commerce” activity tied to such 360-media stars such as Reese Witherspoon, Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith. “We do have a vision for a modern creator economy business,” Mayer said.
