SILVER FOR COMEDY

SILVER
Adam and Joe
Presenters: Adam Buxton, Joe Cornish & Garth Jennings
Executive Producer: James Stirling
Producers: Claire Slevin, Jude Adam, & Ben Appleyard
Broadcast Assistant: Charlotte Guzzan

Adam and Joe never exclude, but rather invite the listener to join them in a parallel universe. Their show combines banter, creativity, honesty, self-deprecation and the comedy song.

AND....

SILVER FOR COMPETITION!

SILVER
Adam and Joe - Video Wars
Presenters: Adam Buxton, Joe Cornish & Garth Jennings
Producer: Jude Adam
Interactive Editor, BBC2 & 6 Music: Clare Hudson
Assistant Producer: Claire Slevin
Assistant Content Producer: Jane Long
An ambitious and innovative entry, delivered at a particularly challenging time at the BBC for competitions. The entry made use of a digital network in new ways and resulted in high quality entries from listeners. A strong and successful interactive dimension and overall offer, very much in tune with the sound and appeal of the programme and the network.

Sadly nothing for Listener Participation - Text The Nation is still not officially the Nation's Favourite feature. But three out of four isn't bad at all.
CONGRATULATIONS TO THE LADS.

Unlucky - but silver ain't bad. The sony's are quite political from what I hear so I'm sure their time will come.

BTW - Does anyone know if they boys were ever nominated in these awards when at XFM?

[benjula]

i swear they won a silver or bronze at xfm?, might be dreaming...

Three silvers is excellent but a gold would have been great. Well done to the A&J!

The boys definitely were. A couple of the people I follow on twitter mentioned talking to them. See? It's good for something.

What did Moyles come away with this year? Are A&J officially better than him yet?
