The 76-year-old "Lord of the Rings" star turned out to helm the gay rights organisation's 10th and final prizegiving ceremony, honouring stars who have helped the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community over the last decade, reported Contactmusic.
"We have come so far for lesbian, gay, bi and trans equality, but we still have so much left to do.This year marks the final year for the Stonewall Awards but watch this space for something new next year, which will reflect all our communities and brings people from across those communities together," said Stonewall's Chief Executive Ruth Hunt.
