Danny Boyle's father will need to see his son's Oscar-nominated movie Slumdog Millionaire again, after sleeping through his first viewing.
Patrick Boyle, 88, believes the highly praised Mumbai, India-based drama is not his son's best offering, preferring debut 1995 release Shallow Grave.
Yet Boyle admitted he will have to watch the box office smash again, after he drifted off during a local cinema showing.
He says, "(Slumdog Millionaire) is great - but definitely not my favourite. That is Shallow Grave. It has always stuck in my mind because it was his first.
"I've seen Slumdog Millionaire - but I think I missed a couple of parts so I wouldn't mind seeing it again."
The British director thanked his father's neigbours when he collected his Bafta saying: "The wiring in my dad's house blew overnight, so a big shout out to everyone who helped him get the extension cable in so he could watch this on TV."
