	OFF THE TELLY: Comedy/Fist of Fun
		Award ceremonies never successfully translate onto TV without some factor conspiring wholly to refocus attention away from "the real reason we're here tonight" and onto a choice selection of supporting distractions.
		The role of the awards' anchor is a perilous one.
		The ceremony is an intriguing document of British TV comedy caught in transition - Marti Caine, Hannah Gordon, Eddie Izzard and Reeves and Mortimer all parade across the stage within minutes of each other.

		A recent poll found that The British Comedy Awards is 28% funnier than any other UK awards ceremony, although the first annual 'Celebrity of the Year Awards' was generally considered to be a joke.
		The total weight of the studio audience at The British Comedy Awards is 31% greater than the weight of the audience at The Soap Awards, but 16% less than the total weight of the audience for The Pride of Britain Awards.
		Each guest at The British Comedy Awards consumes an average of 1.2 bottles of wine during the course of the evening.

		Outrageous behaviour is a dead certainty as the cream of British Comedy enjoys their biggest bender of the year.
		Hosted by the stylish Jonathan Ross, The British Comedy Awards – now in their 16th year – are the daddy of awards and the last remaining award show on British television bold enough to broadcast live.
		The British Comedy Awards at 15: Old Enough to Know Better is a 90 minute extravaganza of the funniest and most outrageous moments from the last 15 years.

	OFF THE TELLY: Reviews/2001/The British Comedy Awards
		December always brings a glut of televised award ceremonies, but this year it's felt like the circus of acclamation and recrimination has hauled itself up a notch.
		This was a reference to the woman's inebriated ranting at the 2000 Comedy Awards, and actually won some boos from the crowd, though, as Jonathan pointed out, notable for being somewhat delayed in their arrival.
		Despite these distractions, though maybe partly because of them, as the show neared its end it became difficult to concentrate on the award categories or who was winning them, and increasingly easier to focus just on Jonathan's introductions and the response of his guests.

		The first award (best TV Comedy Actor) was accepted by Matt, but then David "stole" it as Anne.

		The final award was the People's Choice, which was voted for by the public.

	BBC - Comedy Blog - But The Real Winner Tonight Is Comedy
		Even the awarding of Best TV Show and the first Ronnie Barker award to Little Britain, which some critics seem to think is going off the boil, is evidence that the judges (whoever they are) believe that 6.5 million viewers can't be wrong - whatever the high-falutin' journalists think.
		Chris Langham's best actor award was probably the most welcome news of the night - a long-overdue acknowledgement for years of underappreciated work.
		But for their flaws, the awards did highlight some shows the vast majority of the 9pm ITV audience might not have been aware of.

	British Comedy Awards Announced
		Following yesterday's announcement of the British Comedy Award nominations, it would appear that Gervais and Merchant will be squaring up against Lucas and Walliams, with heavyweights Extras and Little Britain duking it out for supremacy.
		Extras has nabbed five nominations, including best comedy, best comedy actor for its creator and best new comedy, although it will face tough competition from Matt Lucas and David Walliams and their quirky sketch show, whose characters have already become part of our culture.
		The Thick Of It was one of the cleverest comedies to have emerged in recent years, it's cast impeccable and is an excellent political satire to rival Yes Minister, so it would also be great if it got some recognition, but it might not be mainstream enough to satisfy all the judges.

		That's right, for one and a half decades the unruly, teenaged Comedy Awards has been delighting, shocking and generally reducing the nation to helpless mirth.
		With the cream of British comedy talent combined with the unpredictability of live TV (combined with free booze on all of the tables), the results are bound to be messy - but very, very funny.
