Oscars 2018: Where can I watch the Academy Awards in the UK?

The biggest weekend in film is finally here.

After being delayed due to the 2018 Winter Olympics, Hollywood’s hottest night of the year will take place this Sunday, March 4.

The ceremony will take place at the Dolby Theatre at Hollywood & Highland Centre in Los Angeles. American talk show host Jimmy Kimmel will host the ceremony, which many big stars are expected to attend.

Guillermo del Toro’s fantasy The Shape of Water looks most likely to take home the gongs, with an impressive 13 nominations – including Best Picture. Meanwhile Dunkirk has eight and crime drama Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri has seven.

Timothee Chalamet, Daniel Day-Lewis, Daniel Kaluuya, Gary Oldman and Denzel Washington will compete for the Best Actor accolade. Meanwhile, Sally Hawkins, Frances McDormand, Margot Robbie, Saoirse Ronan and Meryl Streep are all in the mix for Best Actress.

The Oscars will be streamed live on Sky Cinema Oscars, available to Sky Movies subscribers – or to NOW TV users with the Sky Cinema Pass (£9.99 a month).

The ceremony takes place at 8.30pm local time, while coverage in the UK will begin at midnight.
