Some good stuff happened last year and some funny British comedies came out, to celebrate this voting for the Comedy.co.uk Awards 2016 is now open!
The awards, run by British Comedy Guide, have been going for 11 years and aim to name the best British TV and radio programmes of the past 12 months. That means every comedy programme is included in the Comedy.co.uk Awards long list and put to the public to vote on. This year a whopping 346 different shows are in the running to win prizes this year.
British Comedy Guide’s editors said: “Every year the Comedy.co.uk Awards grow in scale, and we are expecting hundreds of thousands of votes to be cast by fans over the next fortnight to allow us to confidently name what the best TV and radio comedy programmes from the previous 12 months were. This is a unique chance for audiences to have their say on the broadcast comedy landscape. We look forward to seeing which shows comedy fans decide should form this year’s shortlist.”
The comedies that receive the greatest number of voting points in each category will make up a shortlist. The public will then be invited again to vote on this next Monday 16th January, to determine the winner in each category. The winners are due to be announced on Monday 23rd January.
The British Comedy Awards are not currently running, making the Comedy.co.uk Awards one of the only chances for British comedy programmes and those who create and star in them to be celebrated.
