    James Bond wasn’t able to conquer the BAFTA Awards this year as Quantum of Solace came away empty-handed after being nominated in two categories.

    The 22nd Bond film was up for awards in the Special Visual Effects and Sound categories, but lost to The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and Slumdog Millionaire, respectively.

    2006’s Casino Royale won the latter award when it was nominated two years ago.

    Daniel Craig made an appearance at the event along with girlfriend Satsuki Mitchell. Craig handed out the Best Actress award, which went to Kate Winslet for her role in The Reader. Craig briefly spoke about the show to the BBC News (click here to listen).
