Just come from the Channel of the Year awards, this year presented by the hilarious Russell Brand. He's very good on stage - go see him live.
Here's who won what:
Programme of the Year: Planet Earth
Industry Player of the Year: Russell Davies
Special Achievement: Dawn Airey, stepping down as executive chair of the festival after five years
TV Personality of the Year: David Attenborough
Non-Terrestrial Channel of the Year: BBC Four
Terrestrial Channel of the Year: Channel 4
Collecting the big award, C4 director of programmes Kevin Lygo had a dig back at Charles Allen. "I've got to go to dinner with [him] tonight," he told the audience. "I could always show him this [award] - because he's probably never seen one."
Meanwhile, beaten by David Attenborough to TV personality of the year, Brand joked: "He can have all that - but has he f***ed Makosi? Oh wait, he has."
