What did Olivia Colman say in her Oscars acceptance speech?

Olivia started off her speech by saying: "It’s genuinely quite stressful. This is hilarious. Got an Oscar!

"I have to thank lots of people and if, by the way, I forget anybody I’m going to find you all later and give you all a massive snog and I’m really sorry if I might forget now.

"But, Yorgos, my best director and best film... And with Emily and Rachel, the two loveliest women in the world to fall in love with and to go to work with every day. I mean you can imagine, it wasn't a hardship.

"And, to be in this category with these extraordinary women... Glenn Close, you've been my idol for so long and this is not how I wanted it to be. I think you're amazing, I love you very much. I love you all."

She went on to thank her mum and dad but couldn't hold her tears back so before she could explain why she was thanking her parents, she just jokingly ended her sentence with: "Well, you know..."

She added: "My kids who are at home and watching, look! Well if you're not, then well done. I sort of hope you are, this is not going to happen again.

"And any little girl who is practising their speech on the telly... you never know.

"I used to work as a cleaner and I loved that job. I did spend quite a lot of my time imagining this..." she confessed.

"And my husband Ed, my best friend, I  love you so much. [For] 25 years you've been my best supporter. He's going to cry! I'm not!" she exclaimed as she continued tearing up.
