Edward Cullen awarded top film character of the year!

Last night, the Richard Attenborough Film Awards (AKA the Rafas) took place in London.

The Rafas are the UK's celebration of the year's top films and movie stars, voted for by regional newspaper film critics and cinema-goers alike.

There are 14 categories in the Rafas.

Seven winners are chosen by regional film critics and another seven are decided by the public.

Robert Pattinson's character Edward Cullen was awarded the title of "Top Film Character of the Year".

(You can see a picture of an award here.)

Other big winners on the night were The Social Network and Inception.
