The OSCARS are on this afternoon (Monday here, but still Sunday night in Hollywood) but since they're only on SKY TV I won't be watching.

Meh.
To be honest, I'm over the OSCARS anyway. They've become too predictable, and since the Studio's started their mega PR wars to win the votes pre-event I'd rather bet on a Don King sponsored prize-fight.
