Game of Thrones has broken the record for the most wins in Emmy history after bagging three overnight - including best drama series.
It has overtaken Frasier to become the most successful series ever. It also costs a billion* dollars to make each episode so it all works out. Even though most of it is viewed illegally via streaming and downloading sites.

Full list of winners below!

 

Charmian Carr - who's best known for her role as the eldest von Trapp daughter in the film The Sound of Music - has died at the age of 73.

She played Liesl in the 1965 movie, in which she performed the song "Sixteen Going On Seventeen".

Her spokesperson says she died yesterday in Los Angeles, of complications from a rare form of dementia.

 

Adele has revealed that she is desperate to go to university. She told concert-goers in Boston that she was about to start university in Liverpool in England when she was offered a record deal – and obviously went for the record deal. What’ll she study? My money is on aeronautical engineering.
