Well, it will be upon us soon enough. And the good news (as far as I'm concerned) is that Jonathan Ross is confirmed to be back as host this year, following last year's controversy.

Whatever else one might think of Ross, he really shines in hosting this event (aided by some great writers who tend to pull out all the stops).

Wonder if Ant & Dec will get any nominations this year...?

Personally, I hope that Outnumbered gets the gongs it so rightly deserves.

Re: Outnumbered I'm sure every parent says this but that series reflects our own lives scarily accurately. My kids are the same ages and we have virtually identical conversations every day.

My lot love it and I'm sure they use it as a training video in how to wind up mum and dad.

Yes, Ian. There, there.

Does anyone (I'm looking at you Ian, Aaron, Mark and Dan) know when the nominations for these awards will be announced?

I'll field this one chaps.

Early next year.
Or late this year or something.
More importantly, when's the next Dr Who episode coming out.

Go suck on your 'tache, nerdling!

All of the awards should be given to Stewart Lee.

Having said that, there should be a special award for this brilliant exchange in Shooting Stars...

BOB: I'm your number one fan, George.

GEORGE DAWES: (humble) Oh right, thank you. Thank you very much.

VIC: I'm your uncle.

I'm afaird I don't know. Mind you, considering that the BCA website has not been updated for so long, that's not surprising.

My guess is that the actual ceremony will take place on either on the 11th or 18th December.

Last year's were announced around the 16th November, so I guess it'll be around end of next week or beginning of week after.

Dan

Cheers, Ian and Dan.

Agree with most of what you say there Tim.

How do you do that Tim? Do you have a special web cam hidden somewhere?
