The British Comedy Awards

Yay! Little Britain won all three awards it was nominated for, Yay! The office won an award for it's writing, Yay! Matt Groening won an achievement award, Okay you may think I'm happy with the british comedy awards, my favourites won, well not all of them.

For some reason the best film of the year (in this person's opinion) did not win the best comedy film award! Yes I'm talking about the Simon Pegg/Edgar Wright Shaun of the Dead, possibly the best comedy film of the year, but instead the jury gave it to School of rock. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed school of rock, I've got it in my DVD collection. But shaun of the dead is a better film! Looking back at the past few years of the british comedy award, the jury as always decided to favour british films, Bend it like Beckham, Calender girls, but this year they chose to ignore shaun of the dead, a better film than previous winners of the award! Did I mention shaun of the dead is the best film of the year in my opinion? the best british film of the year, the best comedy film of the year, yet the jury chose to give it School of rock. Surely the celebrity support of the night might of meant they'd side with it, the huge cheers that shaun of the dead got compared to other films! Oh well at least Shrek 2 didn't win!

And further complaining from me (this is a bad introduction to my blog, you'll all think that it just consists of moaning!) but why cathrine tate won best newcomer over the boosh I don't know! For a start the Boosh is much funnier than the cathrine tate show, surely thats the most important reason to win a comedy award, and secondly the Boosh is more original than a mundane sketch show (critics of little britain, I ask not to comment!). Also the british comedy awards would of been a great public exposure for the boosh, due to the bbc2's idiotic scheduling the boosh is scheduled at 7pm on wednesdays, a terrible time to show comedy which is reflected in the viewing figures!

Oh well I'll calm down from my complaing, sit down and watch shaun of the dead again for the twelth time!
