The Help wins big at the Screen Actors Guild

The Help was somewhat of a shock winner at the Screen Actors Guild, taking the awards for Outstanding Performance By A Cast In A Motion Picture, Outstanding Performance By A Female Actor In A Leading Role (Viola Davis) and Outstanding Performance By A Female Actor In A Supporting Role (Octavia Spencer).

Christopher Plummer (who must by now be in the market for a trophy cabinet the amount of awards he's picked up this season) of course took the award for Outstanding Performance By A Male Actor In A Supporting Role for Beginners (and to be fair, he was damn good as Hal), while an awards ceremony wouldn't be complete without an appearance from The Artist, with the award for Outstanding Performance By A Male Actor In A Leading Role going to Jean Dujardin.

Catch The Artist at the Guildhall in Oscars week - 24th February - 1st March.
