Sunday (26 February) night’s Oscars ended in an unusual fashion, when the Best Film award was handed to the wrong film.

Quite frankly, it was a bit of a shock. This is the actual Oscars, after all.
Warren quickly made his excuses - which were a bit of a blur, it was all a lot to take in - and in the meantime, Twitter got to work digesting it all.
Responses at the start were mainly filled with disbelief:
