Oh dear… LOL!
Did you attend the 2010 BEFFTA Awards? If so, then what are your thoughts on the event. Was it a Hit or a Miss?
MAD NEWS UK 
Let’s just say my daughter’s 2nd birthday was more organised.
Seriously, I support the idea, however the team involved need serious assistance to make it an annual event which is to be taken seriously. An experienced event organiser and support staff are required to make next year and futures years a success.
Well i love Bang radio and of course Sherry Dixon is Fab.. Angie Le Mar is mad….happy to hear they won!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
