I've not watched but another forum suggests Kevin Bishop heckled.

Didn't he heckle Katy Brand when she won whatever she won? I think she told him to f**k off.

I wish I'd watched now.

It was Corden.......imagine a room full of people thinking "I like Rick, and he's achieved loads, but he slags of this show every chance, doesn't even show up and if he does win he'll just do his 'BAFTAs/Emmys' thing... So I hope he doesn't get it".....and then he did! After they all moaned Corden felt confident enough to yell out "BOLLOCKS" and various other obscenities as Rick did a skit which involved him saying the award was beneath him and that he had plenty already.....huge surprise and he deserved what he got.

Bishop heckled (and threw LOTS of stuff) when The Inbetweeners beat his shitty show.

Who won everything anyway?

Kevin Bishop won "Biggest Arsehole"

They posthumously awarded the Outstanding Contribution to Comedy award to Geoffrey Perkins. It was a good tribute and quite moving.

Corden is your typical ugly fat bloke.

Loud, over-delivers really lame-arse whimsy and never shuts up. His 8 Out Of 10 Cats performance was f**king bizarre. He was like 12 year old.

I bet he can't believe his luck he's famous. You just know everytime he's seen out with Lily Allen (yeah, like she's EVER going to want to f**k you) he thinks 'Yeah, f**k you school rugby players who made my life HELL!!!'

Awful, arrogant and unfunny man.

Agree with the above but it was still funny to heckle Gervais, especially as Gervais' speech couldnt have been more one trick if he'd tried.

Would he have heckled if RG had turned up?

No....which is the point.

Gervais' speeches at the BCA helped make him what he is (and Ash famous!) ...Since he's gone Yank his "the BCAs are soooo beneath me" act has worn thin, as this is prob the last he'll get (unless the TV spin off off the Pru things happens) it would have been a nice opportunity NOT to just do the same old "I've an Emmy so don't need this plastic" act.

Glad to see Gavin & Stacey win, and The Inbetweeners. And Katy Brand in the "We Have To Give Something To ITV Award."

*drinks vodka and smashes glass in fireplace* in honour of Mr B's return.

It was on the whole an uncomfortable watch.

This was OK. I liked Frank Skinner's and Angus Deayton's little run-in at the end. Very funny.

Your suspension is dragging on a bit . . .
Six years and counting . . .
