OK so the Comedy Awards were actually on Saturday night, but for some reason the pics only appeared this morning. They were quite *whispers* un-controversial.

Outnumbered and TV Burp deservedly won most of the decent awards, with Peter Kay, Terry Wogan and Father Ted creator Graham Lineham getting all sorts of Outstanding Contribution for Services to Official Comedydom and stuff.

Frankie Boyle was the only person to really get a bit near the knuckle with his joke about sexual assault, apart from that it was all a bit, well, boring (for the viewers at least). Where were the fisting jokes?

WINNERS:

  • Best comedy entertainment personality: Harry Hill: Harry Hill's TV Burp
  • Best comedy entertainment programme: Harry Hill's TV Burp
  • Best television comedy actor: Simon Bird: The Inbetweeners
  • Best television comedy actress: Katherine Parkinson: The IT Crowd
  • Best new British television comedy: Psychoville
  • Best television comedy drama: Pulling: special
  • Best live stand-up performer: Michael McIntyre Live at the Apollo
  • Best male comedy newcomer: Charlie Brooker: You Have Been Watching
  • Best female comedy newcomer: Ramona Marquez: Outnumbered: series 2
  • Best comedy panel show: Have I Got News For You
  • Best sitcom: Outnumbered: series 2
  • Best sketch show: Harry & Paul: series 2
  • Best comedy film: In the Loop
  • Lifetime achievement: Sir Terry Wogan
  • Outstanding contribution to comedy: Peter Kay
  • Best British comedy 2009: Outnumbered

  • Is that Sid Little dressed as Heather from Eastenders? I sort of really want it to be.

  • McIntyre? Really? Jesus.

    Just....fuck.

  • PuddyTwat, you're so right about him only being able to be 'funny' if it's written down or rehearsed. I wonder how many of the guests were applauding through gritted teeth....

  • His arrogance knows no bounds - he has no self-awareness, and thinks that rolling out the same fucking 'jokes' every five years constitutes a 'comeback'. How the fuck he won a Perrier I'll never know.... I'll give him one thing - he USED to have good delivery and timing (USED TO), but nonetheless, I'm sure he nicked all the jokes from Dave even then. Incidentally, I read an interview with the brilliant Neil Fitzmaurice, and he said that Kay hadn't spoken to him since 2001, but phoned him out the blue about 2 years ago to ask him not to talk about him in interviews or to the press - what a fucking tosser! Also, the character of Spencer (who was in Phoenix Nights, series 1) was cut, because the actor had a minor disagreement with Kay. He is a bitter, petty, selfish individual. I hope he's happy with his millions because he'll have no friends if he carries on the way he's going now.

    Finally, two more reasons to hate the gimp:

    1. Sally Lindsay (famous for knowing Peter Kay and pretending she went to the Haçienda)
    2. Patrick McGuinness (famous for knowing Peter Kay and Greggs)

    Him and his cronies should be exiled to Bolton (since they fucking love it so much - no offence to anyone who lives there), never to return. Arsewipes.

  • Richard Pryor - a God amongst men. Must watch Brewsters Millions over the hols.

  • I'm glad I'm not the only one scratching my chin over Michael Macintyre. He isn't funny! At all. I wish to God I could dig up Richard Pryor, re-animinate his arse and show what funny really is.

    PuddyTwat Tue, 15/12/2009 - 00:58
  • His speech was rubbish ennit? He had nothing to say and I thought - interesting, he can only do it when it's written down and rehearsed. What a sham.

    PuddyTwat Tue, 15/12/2009 - 00:55
  • I love how everyone who likes Michael Macintyre comes up with the same reason: "He's really funny without swearing loads or being rude!"
    No. He isn't funny. He just acts surprised at pretty much everything and wears vile pink shirts. My senile Nan's been doing that for years and no-one laughs at her.

    .....well, OK, sometimes.

  • So Michael McIntyre is a better standup than say, Stewart Lee? As the Wicked Witch of the West so wisely said, what a world, what a world.

  • Bloody hell, Matt Edmonson looks a bit rough in pic 5... Big Friday night by the looks of it...

  • Whenever there are any kind of Awards being dished out, Britain simply uses it as an opportunity to demonstrate what a complete bunch of crippledicks we truly are.

    'Wogan' and 'Comedy' should be treated like sodium and water and never allowed within a million miles of each other. McIntyre? For services to gittishnes perhaps in fact they should have waited 'til Ryan Giggs was announced as Sports Personality of the Year - theres a fucking comedy award if ever there was one!

  • Just look at some of that fucking line-up of comedic luminaries -

    Lifetime Achievement for Terry Wogan - for what? Being a senile twittering old twat on radio2 (which is admittedly better than radio1)?

    Best live stand-up - Michael McIntyre. Holy shit on a rope, we're fucked, I tell you....

  • I bet Dave Spikey and Neil Fitzmaurice (the REAL Phoenix Nights writers) are mightily pissed off...that charlatan Kay has been riding off the back of their talent for years. Insincere cunt.
