TV goddess: Britain's Got Talent judge Amanda Holden is a vision in her Grecian-esque dress as she poses on the red carpet at the Bafta TV Awards


She's worn a number of gorgeous dresses as a judge on Britain's Got Talent over the last couple of months.

And even though the current series of the TV talent show has now come to an end, Amanda Holden is clearly determined to keep the glamour going.

The 39-year-old looked stunning in an off-white, Grecian-inspired Quintana couture dress as she arrived at the Bafta TV Awards in London this evening.

She happily stopped for the cameras as she walked on to the red carpet at the London Palladium.

And she was enjoying being the centre of the flashbulbs attention as she larked about before sexily posing for the snappers.

Amanda was there to see Britain's Got Talent win the Entertainment Programme category.

Her new hairdo had also been teased into sexy flicks that swept back from her face.


New style: Amanda Holden last night, right, and with longer hair 24 hours earlier


Last night, she showed off her sleek new bob in front of millions during the Britain's Got Talent final.

The actress flowing tresses just 24 hours earlier when she appeared for the semi-final of the hit ITV show.

Stylist Ben Cooke - who was responsible for the famous Victoria Beckham 'pob' - gave her the new hairstyle.

Holden, a mother-of-one, set it off to a tee with a striking full length white gown with silver embellishments around the waist and shoulders.

After Spelbound scooped the £100,000 top prize and a spot on the Royal Variety show, she switched into a short dress for the after party.

By then, she had changed into another white number covered entirely with tassels and again embellished with silver jewels over the bust and shoulders.

Despite the late hour and the gruelling schedule of the past week before the grand final of the talent show, she still managed to look fresh-faced.
