The long-running "antidote to panel games" aired its seventy-third series at the end of the year, following the death of long-term player and former The Goodies star Tim Brooke-Taylor in the spring.
Producer Jon Naismith comments: "A big thank you to British Comedy Guide and all who voted for us. We'd like to dedicate this award to our dear departed friend and colleague Tim Brooke-Taylor who brought joy to several generations over his long and illustrious career. I know he would have been thrilled to receive it."
Graeme Garden says: "We're very proud to receive this award in what has been a difficult year for us all."
Jack Dee added: "This is a great honour. Here's to the programme's absent friends!"
