Congratulations to the team behind the most recent "Giles Wemmbley Hogg"
series, including Graeme Garden, for winning Silver in the 2007 Sony Radio Academy Awards Comedy category.  The series, entitled "Giles Wemmbley Hogg Geht Zum FussballWeltmeisterschaft Weg!" was written by Marcus Brogstocke & Jeremy Salsby with additional material by Graeme.

Here's a blurb about the show from the judges, taken from
http://www.radioawards.org/winners07/win07.htm: "Brilliantly scripted and characterised, this programme was funny from the very start. The judges noted the skill with which the writers incorporated highly topical references, and they warmed to this well-meaning but useless idiot."

Also of note - according to the 27 April 2007 edition of the BBC 7 newsletter, their repeats of "I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue" (featuring Tim & Graeme) ranked at number 6 in the Listen Again BBC radio figures for March 2007!  I'm sure the fan club members contributed to that success.
