Oscars 2010: Bookies take a beating as all six favourites land Academy Awards
Britain's bookmakers were left licking their wounds this morning after the frontrunners for all the major Academy Awards romped home clear.
William Hill says it was it's worst ever Oscars night, after all six favourites won.
It was also a terrible night for British talent with no wins in the major awards and Hills don't expect it to get any better in 2011 - they're already offering 3/1 that a Brit wins Best Actor, Actress or either of the supporting Oscars next year.
Hill's spokesman Rupert Adams said: "We were relying on Avatar winning the Best Film but all the favourites came in and it looks like we have had our worst ever Oscar night."
It's not been announced yet how much of a financial caning bookies took around the country, however.
