Helen accessorised with a pair of pearl drop earrings and applied a flawless palette of makeup including a swipe of pink lipstick to match her outfit. 

The star was joined by filming director Guy Nattiv who looked dapper in a navy suit and a black high necked jump. 

The pair also posed with Israeli actor Lior Ashkenazi and Nicholas Martin on the red carpet before Helen took to the stage to speak. 

It comes after Helen remembered the Queen as the ‘nation’s leading star’ as she lead a special tribute to the late monarch at the Bafta film awards on Sunday.

She has portrayed the monarch on stage and screen, winning an Oscar and Bafta for her depiction in 2006’s biographical drama The Queen.

The late Queen had a close association with the Academy spanning 50 years which saw her donate to and support initiatives, as well as attend many events.

Taking to the stage at this year’s award ceremony at the Royal Festival Hall in front of Prince William and Kate Middleton, Bafta fellow Dame Helen said: ‘Bafta’s relationship with Her Majesty was longstanding and Bafta would not be what it is today without her loyal support.’

The Prince and Princess of Wales appeared touched by the tribute, and could be seen applauding as the actress concluded her speech.

‘In 1953, her coronation broadcast had the world watching. From that time, she was unquestionably the nation’s leading lady but as mysterious as a silent film star. 

‘Who else could meet the world’s most famous singers, actors and performers and turn them into her supporting cast.

‘Throughout her 70-year reign, she met cinema’s greatest icons and witnessed the evolution of Hollywood’s golden age to the birth of the blockbuster. Her Majesty was front row for it all.’

The actress also referenced the more than 50 cultural organisations the late monarch supported during her lifetime and the honorary Bafta award she received in 2013 in recognition for her ‘outstanding patronage of the film and television industries’.

Dame Helen continued: ‘Cinema at its best, does what Her Majesty did effortlessly – bring us together and unite us in a story…

‘Your Majesty, you are our nation’s leading star. On behalf of Bafta, thank you for all that you have done for our film and television industry.’
