Emma Watson dedicates Bafta's Britannia Award to late hamster

Emma Watson has dedicated her Britannia Award for British Artist of the Year, hosted by Bafta to her late hamster Millie.

At the Jaguar Britannia Awards at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles, the 24-year-old British star said that her on-set furry pal had passed due to heart attack during the first 'Harry Potter' film, E! Online reported.

She added that the set decorators built a beautiful tiny mahogany coffin with Millie's named engraved, and it was a "sweet, but slightly morbid example" of the film community being like a second family.

Watson was presented with her award by 'Narnia' star Ben Barnes and 'Belle' actress Gugu Mbatha-Raw .

Other honorees at the event included Judi Dench Robert Downey Jr., Julia Louis Dreyfus, Mark Ruffalo, and Mike Leigh, and the guests and presenters included Josh Gad, Dustin Hoffman, Eddie Redmayne, Felicity Jones, Jon Favreau, Robert Duvall, Jamie Foxx, Hailee Steinfeld and Nigel Lythgoe.
