TELLY QUESTIONS OF THE WEEK
John Mckie

HOW come BBC1 are showing that Tom Hanks' film Cast Away every other night?

Who at C4 chose Russell Brand as the 69th funniest standup? He's not even the funniest man in his own living room.

To the Broadcasting Press Guild Awards. Monkey was bedazzled by the talent at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane today. Stephen Fry, John Simm, Andy Harries, Philip Glenister, Sue Johnston, Andy Harries... they were all there. Only two winners were no-shows - Helen Mirren and Russell Brand. Coincidentally they were both in Los Angeles (not together, now that would be a story) and sent video messages. Helen's was suitably gracious, Russell's suitably loquacious. Russell said he was honoured to receive an award from "an organisation that before I got this bit of paper I didn't know existed". He won best non-acting performer, which as he pointed out: "Every last word in that is a devaluation of the actual achievement ... it's like best non-acting performer ... on a Wednesday." He went on to add: "Ally Ross, thank you for your constant acerbic sniping", before ending his speech with "I am having a lot of sex, I really am." guardian
