In true Danny Dyer style, the actor’s real acceptance speech was simply too explicit to air at this year’s TV Bafta Awards.

But luckily for you, we have it in full…

The EastEnders star, 47, picked up the trophy for best male performance in a comedy for his portrayal of Lee in Sky series Mr Bigstuff.

As he took to the stage to accept his prize, viewers saw him joke on BBC One tonight that ‘the acting was so bad it was funny.’

He also thanked his family and writer and actor Ryan Sampson, whom he called the ‘best thing to come out of Rotherham’.

However, Danny proceeded to swear several times, despite being warned earlier about the Bafta rules.

Consequently, host Alan Cumming had to say sorry on Danny’s behalf for the actor’s potty mouth.

But what exactly was said? Well, it involved plenty of F-bombs…

In his hilarious speech live from Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall, Danny’s emotion clearly got the better of him, as he said: ‘I want to thank Sky for giving our show a shot. F***ing hell, I’m choked up.’

Heaping praise on co-star Sampson, he continued: ‘One of the best actors this country’s ever produced, I’m telling you. Never done the same thing twice. Which is not something I can say. 

‘He wrote this part for me, so you know… I’m getting choked up again, f**k me. So you won this for me, mate, I really appreciate it. Thank you so much.’

Danny concluded by shouting out his two daughters, Dani, 28, and Sunnie, 18, who were sitting in the audience, not missing the opportunity to dish out one last expletive.

Danny said: ‘Girls, Sunnie and Dani… I’ve done it, girls, I’ve f**king done it!’

Of course, this was all pre-watershed, forcing The Traitors host Cumming to tell the star-studded crowd: ‘I’ve been asked to apologise for the naughty language there.’

Carrying his Bafta with pride to the winners’ room, Danny reflected on how much it meant, joking that not everyone is likely to be happy about his victory.

Speaking to Metro and other press, the Rivals star replied when reminded he had scored the ‘number one acting accolade in this country’: ‘I can’t believe it.’

Asked what his critics over the years might have to say, he quipped: ‘Oh, there’ll be some people fuming!

‘I don’t know, man. I’ve earned it. I only want one; I don’t need more than this. I’m happy. I’ve lifted a couple of NTAs over the years, and I always like to win awards and lose them, do the moody clap [pretending] that you’re happy for someone else… I’ve done all that b******s, and I thought I’d be doing that tonight.

‘I’ve had a really good run this year. Rivals has been so well received,’ he reminisced.

‘A bit odd, really. I’ve got Rivals sitting there, and I’ve got Mr Bigstuff there,’ he gesticulated.

‘I’ve made it.’

Danny triumphed over some tough competition tonight, as he was nominated against Bilal Hasna for Extraordinary, Dylan Thomas-Smith for G’wed, and Nabhaan Rizwan for Kaos.

Oliver Savell, who plays a young Alan Carr in Changing Ends, was also recognised, as was Phil Dunning for his role in BBC Three’s Smoggie Queens.

Other big winners of the night included Mr Bates Vs The Post Office, which scooped limited drama, while Mr Loverman stars Lennie James and Ariyon Bakare won leading actor and supporting actor, respectively.

Marisa Abela took home leading actress for playing Yasmin in Industry, while Jessica Gunning was clearly stunned to receive the supporting actress Bafta for Martha in Baby Reindeer.

EastEnders won best soap, Would I Lie To You? won for entertainment, and The Jury: Murder Trial won for reality.
