So massive congratulations to Harry Hill, whose TV Burp has received a worthy honour from the British Academy and earned its wings at last, after several years of Saturday tea-time madness.

He deserves nothing less for at the very least arranging fights between different foodstuffs, slow elderly people and animals, and providing superb comedy relief on a Saturday before Primeval starts.

Hill himself was typically bonkers on the night, but it was a superb result only tempered by the ridiculous arse kissing that took place giving Gavin and Stacey success in the face of stronger and funnier competition.

Congratulations also to Bruce Forsyth, who after celebrating his 80th birthday this year was awarded a BAFTA Fellowship, the academy’s highest honour.  All those spinning wheels and prat falls, dancing having a rant at the camera must have seemed worth it, eh Brucie?
