Two-time Academy Award winner Daniel Day-Lewis has played down his chances of making film history and becoming the first actor to scoop an Oscar hat-trick.
The Lincoln star, who is the favourite to win best actor for his portrayal of the US President, said the awards ceremony was full of surprises.
"I don't think there's any way of knowing the outcome. The Academy particularly likes surprises," Day-Lewis said.
