The British Comedy Awards 2003

Will we be watching for sheer entertainment value, or to see what and when things go wrong! Jonathan Ross introduces tonights proceedings LIVE from the South Bank from 9-11pm on ITV1

It is very funny so far, Johnathon Ross is taking the p*ss out of everyone and every show, Terry and Gaby, This Is Dom Joly, Kirsty's Home Videos, BBC Three's audience. He even moaned at ITV for not putting it on a Saturday because of 'Lesbian Academy' looks like it's going to be a good one.

Well 50 Minutes in and all I can say it is very very funny, even Wossie won an award and even swore. Ricky Gervais presented it to him, but he took a while reading the nominations while talking about nothing, and that The Office was going to be on BBC Two at 10pm.

What a prat Simon Cowell is. Coming out to read the nominations and not knowing how to pronounce one of the names is rude and downright unprofessional.

I duno bout you but i was watching the Cheeky Girls! Lovely!

David Walliams was fantastic then, kissing Johnathon and Laurence, buy Not Kirsty, fantastic. At least he knows ITV is running late tonight, as there was no speech at all.

I can't say I've laughed this hard at something on ITV, everything that is supposed to have gone wrong has gone wrong.

Lenny 'I really wasn't expecting this' Henry, would like to thank.....................................................................................................

I never like to see Lenny henry win anything. So not funny.

At least he sped it up though!

I see that they're unable to show full clips of the nominated shows, due to the inevitable overrunning!

There's now a second lifetime achievement award and it has gone to Jimmy Perry and David Croft, which I would say is more deserved.

But why two lifetime achievement awards on the same night?

We wouldn't have wanted it to be posthumous now would we?

In regard to Lenny Henry, a tad previous to say the least. Bit like when This is Your Life did slebs in their twenties. What life?

Well he has had quite a life so far, but I'm sure there's much more to come.
