The TV choice awards 2011 were last night
and now we finally know who the winners are.
The thing about these awards is that they are voted for by the public
which I think is good. This way we get
to see what the public think because honestly the TV industry does have an
agenda with everything it does.
So let’s take a look at all the winners and
what we think about that!
Best New Drama
The winner of this award was Sherlock by
BBC 1. Sherlock beat Downton Abbey,
Single Father and The Walking Dead. I’m
actually glad Sherlock won. I personally
love the show and it shows that other people love it as well. The other shows are good but I feel they don’t
captivate you as much as Sherlock does.
Best Drama Series
The winner of this was Being Human by BBC
3. Being Human beat Misfits, Glee and
Shameless. Honestly I have never seen
Shameless so I don’t really know about it.
I think in terms of drama the best show won from the other three at
least.
Best Family Drama
Doctor Who by BBC 1 won this award. It beat Casualty, Merlin and Waterloo
Road. Okay so I don’t really see how
casualty and Waterloo road are family shows.
I wouldn’t let my young child watch them (if I had one). I would actually have like Merlin to
win. That’s not to say I don’t like
Doctor Who because I do I just don’t like the new Doctor. Give me David Tennant any day.
Best Actor
David Tennant won this award for his role
in Single Father. He beat Benedict
Cumberbatch, Colin Morgan and Matt Smith.
I total agree with this win. I
think David Tennant was excellent in this role.
Of course Colin Morgan is also really good as Merlin but it doesn’t have
the same tug on the heart as David Tennant’s role. Benedict Cumberbatch is wonderful as Sherlock
but again tugs! I don’t think that Matt
Smith is doing the Doctor that well so there.
Best Actress
Karen Gillan won Best Actress. She beat Amanda Burton, Vicky McClure and
Elisabeth Sladen. When you see the
competition I have to say that she is the best.
While the Doctor may leave something to be desired Karen Gillan is good
as Amy.
Best Entertainment Show
This award went to Celebrity Juice by
IT2. They beat An Idiot Abroad, The
Graham Norton Show and QI. When it comes
to entertainment I have to say that Celebrity Juice deserves this. An Idiot Abroad is funny but can get a bit
boring after a while. The Graham Norton
Show is a bit meh for me. As for QI I
just don’t get it. Maybe that’s just me
or something.
Best Comedy
The Inbetweeners by C4 won this award. They beat Benidorm, Miranda and The Ricky
Gervais Show. I think they are the
funnier of all these shows. Benidorm is
a close second to The Inbetweeners.
Miranda I can only watch about one episode every month and the Ricky
Gervais Show often doesn’t even blip my radar.
On a side note I can’t wait for The Inbetweeners movie!
Best Gameshow
The Cube by ITV1 won this. The other nominees were Deal or No Deal, The
Million Pound Drop and Total Wipeout.
The Cube, I think, is more of a traditional gameshow compared to some of
the others. Honestly when I watch
Wipeout I don’t really think of it as a gameshow.
Best Reality Show
The Apprentice by BBC1 won this award. It was up against I’m A Celebrity, The Only
Way Is Essex and Peter Andre: The Next Chapter.
Okay I love Peter Andre but his show shouldn’t be here. It’s not really a reality show so much as a
documentary type thing. The Only Way Is
Essex annoys me so I don’t care that they didn’t win and I’m a Celebrity is
good but not a best show.
Best Daytime Show
The winner of this was The Jeremy Kyle Show
by ITV1. He beat BBC Breakfast, Loose
Women and This Morning. Now most people
are saying that is a bit of a problem because Jeremy Kyle is not as classy or
informative as the other shows. The fact
of the matter is that the public voted for him so there. I don’t mind the other shows but sometimes
you just want to watch the mess that is other people’s lives. You don’t have to debate or learn something
new every time you watch daytime TV.
Best Talent Show
Britain’s Got Talent by ITV1 won this. They beat MasterChef, Strictly Come Dancing
and the X Factor. Really who else was
going to win this? MasterChef is great
but you can learn to cook, it’s not a talent.
Strictly is wonderful but yet again it is not a talent. The celebs are being taught. The X Factor is good but not my favourite so
Britain’s Got Talent it is.
Best Lifestyle Show
The winner of this award is Come Dine With
Me by C4. They beat Gok’s Clothes
Roadshow, Grand Designs and Supersize Vs Superskinny. I personally think that Supersize Vs Superskinny
should have won. It’s the only show that
really looks at lifestyles. Gok’s
Clothes Roadshow is daft and annoys me while Grand Designs is great if you want
to watch people build their dream homes.
Best Factual Entertainment Show
This was won by Top Gear by BBC2. They beat Big Fat Gypsy Wedding, Embarrassing
Bodies and Katie: My Beautiful Friends. Top
Gear is great but I would like it more if Jeremy Clarkson wasn’t on it. That man annoys the heck out of me. Big Fat Gypsy Wedding is good but not good
enough for an award. I didn’t know that
Embarrassing Bodies was meant to be entertainment. Katie should not be allowed to do shows.
Best Food Show
Jamie’s 30 Minute Meals by C4 won this
one. He beat The Hairy bikers, Saturday
Kitchen and Something For The Weekend.
Out of all of these I would probably watch Jamie if I wanted to know
about food. Saturday Kitchen is fine but
I don’t feel I could make the things on the show. I would not mix food and Hairy Bikers. Something For The Weekend I have never heard
of.
Best Soap
This was predictably won by
EastEnders. Albert Square beat
Coronation Street, Emmerdale and Hollyoaks.
I think the best soap won here. I
do watch EastEnders and Hollyoaks and think EastEnders is better. The few episodes I’ve caught of the other two
also tell me that Albert Square is the best.
Best Soap Actor
Shane Richie from EastEnders won this. He was up against Simon Gregson, Danny Miller
and Emmett J Scanlan. The others are all
really good actors but they don’t give the same kind of performance as Shane
Richie. I never have trouble believing
that he really is feeling what his character should be which is something I
sometimes find with the others.
Best Soap Actress
Another EastEnders win with Jessie
Wallace. She beat Michelle Keegan,
Katherine Kelly and Pauline Quirke. I
have loved Jessie Wallace from the first time I watched EastEnders. She, like Shane Richie, really gets her
character and is able to show that emotion on screen.
Best Soap Newcomer
Paula Lane from Coronation Street won this
one. I was a bit surprised that she beat
people like Jacqueline Jossa, Steve John Shepherd and Emmett J Scanlan. I would have liked Emmett J Scanlan to win
just because of the character he plays.
Hello, he’s a gay Irish gangster who beats up his boyfriend yet still
has fans.
Best Soap Storyline
The winner of this was Coronation Street
for their 50th anniversary tram crash. This beat EastEnders Ronnie swaps her baby
for Kat’s, Emmerdale’s Lisa’s rape and Hollyoaks’ Brendan and Ste’s affair gay
domestic abuse story. I thought this
would win simply because it’s Coronation Street’s 50th anniversary
show.
So that’s the TV Choice Awards 2011. Most of the awards I’m actually good with
which is amazing. I suppose I should say
congratulations to all the winners even the ones that I don’t like. So Congrats!
