Message from Matthew Graham: “I'm very sorry not to be attending what I'm sure is an extremely sober and civilized event carried out in a calm, orderly fashion. Sadly I was nicked whilst 'taffing a crate load of hooky smokes from Froggyland. Old Bill got leery so me and Ronnie The Roach had to go to town with a couple of sawn-offs. Pretty soon The Dog And Duck looked like the Battle Of Bleedin' Trafalgar and it all ended with Yours Truly looking down the business-end of a 5-stretch. But as they say in Spain- Que sera. Which means ‘kiss my arse’ in Queen's English.

“There's so many people I'd like to thank – but sadly they're all either dead or in stir.

“SFX has always been a stalwart supporter of both Hunt incarnations for which we are all extremely grateful. This award is the glace cherry on top of the black forrest gateau.

“Many many thanks and have a great night. And try not to behave like low-life slags or we'll send the rozzers in.”
