Oscar-winning The Theory Of Everything star Eddie Redmayne has found himself in the unusual position of being pipped to an award. Redmayne, who took the best actor Oscar and Bafta award for playing science genius Stephen Hawking, saw his clean sweep of award wins ended by Lord Of The Rings star Andy Serkis at the 2015 Jameson Empire Awards. Serkis was named best actor for his motion-capture performance in Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes, the style of acting that brought him to popular attention when he played the creature Gollum in Peter Jackson’s trilogy and more recently in the first Hobbit film.
