<p>Helena Bonham Carter insisted she was relieved not to win the Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress, as it meant she didn&#8217;t have to make a speech.</p>
<p>The British star, who plays the Queen Mother alongside award winner Colin Firth in The King&#8217;s Speech revealed at the Weinstein after-party for the awards she was glad to lose out to The Fighter&#8217;s Melissa Leo.</p>
<p>Helena said: &#8220;I&#8217;m really glad Colin won, it was fine. I was so glad I didn&#8217;t have to get up and give a speech.&#8221;</p>
<p>And the actress &#8211; who worked with The Social Network&#8217;s David Fincher on Fight Club &#8211; admitted she was not too upset that The King&#8217;s Speech missed out to The Social Network for Best Picture.</p>
<p>She said: &#8220;At the time you&#8217;re just glad you don&#8217;t have to get up. I&#8217;m slightly split because I really like David Fincher because I&#8217;ve worked with him, but whatever, all I care about is if I&#8217;m going to get another job, that&#8217;s all it&#8217;s about.&#8221;</p>
<p>The film&#8217;s director Tom Hooper was equally gracious in defeat.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m thrilled for Colin, I was just pleased to be in the room with seven nominations in the first place,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>Tom said Colin&#8217;s reference to a possible mid-life crisis was a joke and he was able to cope with being in the spotlight.</p>
<p>He said: &#8220;Look, he&#8217;s done the whole thing before and it was only a year ago.</p>
<p>&#8220;I think he has his way through and he has his lovely wife Livia, his great supporter, and he&#8217;s got all of us.&#8221;</p>
