He was then surprised later in the evening with a Special Recognition Award. The touching tributes came from HRH the Prince of Wales, Alan Davies, Hugh Laurie, Jo Brand and Daniel Radcliffe. As he approached the podium he upped his exclamation to "OMFG".

He said that he had been "extremely lucky" and that people would look back at this time as a "golden age" of television, where people could "try out new ideas" and "be silly".

Stephen was praised for his documentaries including the frank portrayal he gave of his manic depression.
