	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.

	All about Ricky Gervais' Office (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		To be fair, a lot of the awards aren’t really very important, and so it doesn’t matter, but to give you an idea, it’s normal to expect the show to win any category it’s been nominated in.
		What is now a landmark in British comedy went by relatively unnoticed at the time.
		Comedy shows had made use of the fly-on-the-wall documentary style, but none had played the comedy quite so subtly as to be mistaken for a genuine documentary, which some people did in the early days of The Office.
