'Fools' rush in for awards

More accolades for comedy

Only Fools and Horses has won yet another TV award.

Even though its only episode in five years - the Christmas special - was slated by critics, it has been named best comedy by readers of TV Quick.

And star David Jason was named best actor, for the third time.

The accolades were handed out at a London ceremony hosted by Jack Dee.

So Graham Norton won the best entertainment show for the second time.

Elsewhere, EastEnders, Pop Idol and the revived Auf Wiedersehen Pet picked up awards - and Animal Hospital was named best factual programme, ahead of any number of heavyweight documentaries.
