The Golden Globes provided a host of unexpected victories as well as its usual display of internet-breaking fodder. Perhaps the biggest surprise came in the form of Wes Anderson’s The Grand Budapest Hotel, which scooped Best Film – Musical or Comedy, while Richard Linklater’s Boyhood won big with Best Director and Best Film – Drama, and Patricia Arquette claimed Best Actress for her role in the film.

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler were on top form with their usual opening banter, with Sony, George Clooney and Steve Carell falling prey to their expert wit.
