The winners of the Chortle Awards 2025 have been revealed via a ceremony in London.
The results were determined by a public vote, from shortlists devised by industry experts.
Rob Copland, Jin Hao Li, Emma Sidi, Flo & Joan, Michael Odewale, Phil Ellis and Sam Campbell were amongst the comedians winning prizes.
Meanwhile prolific BBC radio producer Bill Dare - who died in an accident earlier this month - was given a heartfelt tribute from Dead Ringers star Jon Culshaw, as he was named the recipient of this year's offstage contribution award. Janey Godley was also honoured posthumously for her radio show about cancer, The C Bomb.
