Whether it's crunching the numbers as the results come in, analysing voting trends, taking the key players to task or providing a real-time picture of the make-up of the country, Sky News has got election night covered.

Here are the key moments so far (and we'll update these throughout the night):

:: 10pm - Polls have closed

Counting in the 2017 General Election is under way.

The exit poll shows the Conservatives projected to win 314 seats, making them the largest party but without enough for a majority in the Commons (they need 326). Labour would be on 266 seats, the SNP 34 seats and the Lib Dems on 14 seats. UKIP would have no seats.

:: 11pm - The first constituency has declared

Newcastle Upon Tyne Central is the first to declare this year. Labour candidate Chi Onwurah has held the seat with a majority of just under 15,000. Turnout was 66.8%.

Houghton and Sunderland South was close behind, and the seat was held by Labour's Bridget Phillipson. Turnout was 61%, up from 56.3% in 2015.

Sunderland Central came in third and was held by Labour's Julie Elliott with 25,056 votes, a majority of just under 10,000. Turnout was 62%.

:: 12am - The early results

The Conservatives got their first seat just before 12am - Swindon North was held by Justin Tomlinson with 29,431 votes, a majority over Labour of 8,335. Turnout was 68.5%.

The Conservatives held Nuneaton, with Marcus Jones gaining a majority of 4,739 over the Labour candidate Philip Johnson.

Nuneaton, in Warwickshire, is seen as a bellwether seat, having flipped between Conservative and Labour but the Tories had a 4,882 majority in 2015. The then prime minister David Cameron said he knew he had won when his party held Nuneaton.

:: 1am - First marginal seat declares

Labour held Wrexham, a seat where they had a majority of just 1,831 in 2015. They have increased their majority by just one vote. The Conservatives failed to get the 2.8% swing needed to win it.

Former Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg lost his Sheffield Hallam seat to Labour's Jared O Mara. Mr Clegg got 19,756 votes to Mr O Mara's 21,881. Mr Clegg said the future Parliament will face the "excruciating" task of trying to assemble a "sensible government" and will be "presiding over a deeply deeply polarised nation".

"We must try to find common ground if we are to heal those profound divisions," he adds.

Business Secretary Greg Clark held the seat of Tunbridge Wells and Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson also held Uxbridge and Ruislip South (despite a swing to labour of 13.6%).

Conservative leader Theresa May held the Berkshire seat of Maidenhead, with 37,718 votes against Labour's Pat McDonald (11,261 votes). Mrs May has held the seat since it was created in 1997. She will have a good idea about whether she is still Prime Minister by now.

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn held his London seat of Islington North with 40,086 votes, a massive majority over the next best candidate James Clark from the Conservatives (6871 votes). Mr Corbyn has held the seat since 1983.

Concession?

Traditionally, the winning party leader waits until the loser concedes before declaring victory.

That concession can come any time, but the leader of the losing party will often head back to party HQ first. In his resignation speech after losing in 2015, the then Labour chief Ed Miliband revealed he had called Mr Cameron to concede defeat.

Candidates

A total of 3,306 candidates stood in the 2017 General Election - fewer than any election since 1992.

In 2015, there were 3,971.

The most significant reduction this year is the number of UKIP (down 246) and Green Party (down 105) candidates.

A record 983 women candidates also stood this year - up from 947 in 2015, when a record 191 women were elected to Parliament.

The larger number of female candidates was partly down to the selection process, which has been more controlled by the main parties than in previous years, but also because of the short amount of time to select candidates.

Labour leads the way with 256 female candidates, up 43 from 2015. The Conservatives have 182 - up 14 - and the Lib Dems are up 20 with 184 female candidates this year.
