The 2023 Oscars ceremony takes place this weekend, and there are a number of ways viewers in the UK can watch it live.
The 95th Academy Awards will be held at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California on Sunday (March 12). Jimmy Kimmel will be hosting the event once again, having previously done so in 2017 and 2018.
Films such as Everything Everywhere All At Once, The Banshees Of Inisherin, All Quiet On The Western Front and Elvis will all be competing for the top prize on the night, while the likes of Brendan Fraser, Austin Butler, Cate Blanchett and Michelle Yeoh are all up for acting awards.
