So who better than Brangelina – actor Brad Pitt and actress Angelina Jolie – to feature in a trailer created by a Sheffield company to promote this year’s BAFTA awards?

The trailer, voiced by Stephen Fry, will begin screening in cinemas across the country this Sunday, and will run for two weeks, ahead of the award ceremony, which will be hosted by Fry, on February 8. The creative agency Über was commissioned by the British Academy of Film and Television Arts to produce the trailer, which features numerous film stars at previous BAFTA ceremonies, and which is expected to be seen more than half a million times in the build-up to the awards.
