Due to the UK time difference the Oscars is shown through the night and many people can't stay up to watch it live due to having to go work the next day. So to save time I've made this video showing the winners of this years Oscars presented by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS). Please note: the video WILL contain Oscars 2017 spoilers.

► About

The Academy Awards, or "Oscars", are given annually by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to recognize excellence in cinematic achievements in the United States film industry as assessed by the Academy's voting membership. The various category winners are awarded a copy of a statuette, officially called the Academy Award of Merit, which has become commonly known by its nickname "Oscar." The awards, first presented in 1929 at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, are overseen by AMPAS.

The awards ceremony was first broadcast on radio in 1930 and televised for the first time in 1953. It is now seen live in more than 200 countries and can be streamed live online. The Academy Awards ceremony is the oldest entertainment awards ceremony. Its equivalents -- the Emmy Awards for television, the Tony Awards for theater, and the Grammy Awards for music and recording -- are modeled after the Academy Awards.

The 89th Academy Awards ceremony, honoring the best films of 2016, will be held on February 26, 2017 at the Dolby Theatre. The ceremony will be hosted by Jimmy Kimmel and will be broadcast on ABC. A total of 3,048 Oscars have been awarded from the inception of the award through the 88th.

► the first oscars ceremony

The first Academy Awards presentation was held on May 16, 1929, at a private dinner function at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel with an audience of about 270 people. The post-awards party was held at the Mayfair Hotel. The cost of guest tickets for that night's ceremony was $5 ($70 in 2017 dollars). Fifteen statuettes were awarded, honoring artists, directors and other participants in the film-making industry of the time, for their works during the 1927–28 period. The ceremony ran for 15 minutes.

Winners had been announced to media three months earlier, however, that was changed for the second ceremony in 1930. Since then, for the rest of the first decade, the results were given to newspapers for publication at 11:00 pm on the night of the awards. This method was used until an occasion when the Los Angeles Times announced the winners before the ceremony began; as a result, the Academy has, since 1941, used a sealed envelope to reveal the name of the winners.

► Other Awards

In addition to the Oscar award, there are seven annual awards presented by the Academy:

The Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award, The Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award, The Gordon E. Sawyer Award, The Academy Scientific and Technical Award, The Academy Award for Technical Achievement, The John A. Bonner Medal of Commendation and The Student Academy Award.
