It beat Gavin & Stacey's fabulous finale — which was watched by 18million viewers — Ant and Dec's behemoth I'm a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! and Claudia Winkleman's more recent monster hit The Traitors.
And that wasn't the only upset at the Television and Radio Industries Club's celebration of telly, radio and online shows, hosted by Dan Walker at London's Grosvenor Hotel.
Bradley Walsh beat serial winners Ant and Dec, Alison Hammond and Martin Lewis to TV Personality.
GB News Breakfast scooped the News category over Good Morning Britain, ITV and BBC's evening news, and also won best News Presenter for Charlie Peters over Fiona Bruce, Susanna Reid and host Dan.
'Funny memes'
This Morning star Sam Thompson was thrilled to pick up the Podcast honour with pal Pete Wicks for Staying Relevant after a number of nominations since it began.
A grinning Sam said: 'We've never won one and we turn up every time.
'It always goes to Peter Crouch, who doesn't even turn up!'
A win also came as a surprise to the cast of Channel 4's The Great British Bake Off, who told me they failed to write an acceptance speech as they didn't expect to take home the Best Food gong ahead of BBC favourite MasterChef.
Christiaan de Vries, who was a finalist last year, joked: 'I should've used ChatGPT! Bake Off is such a legacy, isn't it?'
Last year's winner Georgie Grasso added: 'It's such a great show and everyone works so hard, so an award is the icing on the cake.'

Lee Carsley snubbed for Saipan film role but hopes to write Hollywood movie script with Euros sequel with England U21s
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LEE CARSLEY knew nothing about a potential role in new movie Saipan — but he is desperate to write his own Hollywood script in Slovakia. The England Under-21s boss was part of the Republic of Ireland's 2002 World Cup squad that witnessed the huge row between boss Mick McCarthy and captain Roy Keane.

A trailer for the movie, starring Steve Coogan as McCarthy, has set tongues wagging. Unfortunately for Carsley, despite Oliver Coopersmith being cast to play McAteer, producers felt there was no place for the Young Lions chief. But the 51-year-old is more concerned about leading England to a second-straight Euro crown, with a semi-final against the Netherlands tonight. Carsley said: 'Holland are a team that we've been watching now for a while. 'They're very attacking, very expansive in the way they play. 'Technically very good. I really like the system that they play as well. 'We've spoken about making sure the Spain game can't be the highlight of our tournament. BEST FREE BETS AND BETTING SIGN UP OFFERS 'So the players are really determined. 'We've had a good couple of days training. We're looking forward to the game now.' England u21s clash with Germany SUSPENDED as stadium plunged into semi-darkness and players taken off pitch After Carsley's side slapped Spain 3-1 in the quarter-finals on Saturday, he is now hoping they produce another masterclass to sink the Dutch. He said: 'Ideally and I've spoken to the players about it, you want to coach a team where you watching them play and you're enjoying watching them. That Spain game and the second half of the Germany game, you are on the side, enjoying watching the players play and expressing themselves. 'You want foreign journalists to speak about our players the way we sometimes speak about their players, in terms of their technical ability or the way they can take the ball. 'We're definitely changing that perception of English players.' Holland coach Michael Reiziger has been impressed by the Young Lions. His side beat Portugal 1-0 last time out despite Ruben van Bommel's 21st- minute red card. 4 Michael Reiziger has been impressed by England's style of play Credit: Getty Reiziger said: 'They're not playing in a typical English style. 'They are playing really well with a lot of good quality and they are growing into the tournament. 'It will be a tough game but that is logical. 'We've watched every match of England. 'Two strong teams that love to play football, two teams that have quality. 'It is going to be an interesting game. We have some comparison with England. 'We started not that well but are getting better every time, resulting in the fact we won a game with ten men.' After over two decades of misery in penalty shootouts, Sir Gareth Southgate helped instil a no fear factor into England players, with the seniors winning three of their last four. And Carsley insists his lads are ready for penalties if it comes down to it tonight. He said: 'There's more of an awareness of penalties and the technique and structure that goes behind a shoot-out. 'We are fortunate to have a lot of players who take penalties for their clubs. 'It is very difficult to replicate the walk from the halfway line to the penalty spot, especially if you are not used to it. 'It's something Gareth pushed which filtered down the pathway. 'It is so important because of the amount of resources thrown at the senior team to be the best at shootouts. 'That awareness of how important they are has definitely trickled down and we have benefited from that.'

EastEnders star wishes she was like Kathy amid unbreakable bond with co-star
Kathy Beale actor Gillian Taylforth has opened up about her long-running EastEnders character and her time on the BBC soap opera as the show celebrates its 40th anniversary year Long-running EastEnders star Gillian Taylforth says she wishes she was more feisty and fearless like her iconic soap character Kathy Beale. The actress has been a part of the BBC show since its first episode, firmly establishing herself as fans favourite thanks to her character's no nonsense attitude. Whilst she says some things - like her voice - are indistinguishable, Gillian, 69, says there are others that are quite different. "Sometimes I wish I was a bit more like Kathy – she has a lot of opinions, and I'm one of those people who sits on the fence," admits Gillian. "I'm not that strong-minded, but she is and I love that. "She's got a great sense of humour, too – that's something we share. When I'm out and about, people shout 'Kathy!' at me. And if people don't recognise me to start with, as soon as I talk, they know it's me – it's the deep voice!" As the show celebrates its 40th anniversary this year, so does Gillian, as one of the few stars to have survived four decades. She returned to the show in 2015 after being presumed dead since 2006, making a surprise appearance in a live episode celebrating the show's 30th anniversary. She came back full time and reunited with her on-screen son Ian Beale, played by Adam Woodyatt, 56. Opening up on their tearful reunion and unbreakable bond, Gillian says they are like mum and son off set as well as on. "I have amazing relationships with everyone at EastEnders, but there's something special with Adam," she said. "He's played my son for 40 years, and he never calls me by my name, it's always 'Mum', even when we're not on set, and he's 'Son' to me. "We've got a close bond – he can see if I've forgotten my lines, and he'll say them to remind me. The moment we reunited when Kathy came back, there were tears everywhere – it was a magical moment." A much-loved fan favourite, her co-stars also love Gillian, who says she's the life and soul of the party on set. "My nickname at work is Jukebox Gilly as I'm always bursting into song!" she told. During her 10 year break from EastEnders, mum-of-two Gillian explored other telly projects, appearing on Celebrity Big Brother, Footballers' Wives and Hollyoaks. But she says none compared to Albert Square. "EastEnders has always been my favourite place to work," she beamed. "I loved The Bill, Footballers' Wives and Hollyoaks. I got to do plays and a musical and other things that were lovely. But EastEnders has always been in my heart, because that's where I feel I became who I am. "This wonderful character, Kathy, was always a big part of me. So when I was invited back for the 30th anniversary, I was overjoyed to have Kathy back in my life." Gillian has been a part of some of EastEnders' most high-profile storylines. Kathy was the victim of rape in 1988 episodes and Gillian recalled how it had a huge impact on her. "One storyline that really stuck with me was Kathy's rape in 1988. [Kathy was raped by bar owner James Willmott-Brown, played by William Boyde.] "That was really dark. I went home every night to sort through the material and figure out exactly how I'd play each moment – and when you're reading it all the time, and rehearsing, you want to forget about it straight away because it's such an awful subject. "But it was a great honour to be trusted with that storyline, and I wanted to do it justice. So many girls wrote in to say it had happened to them, and I knew that the show was reaching a lot of people who needed it." If you've been the victim of sexual assault, you can access help and resources via or calling the national telephone helpline on 0808 802 9999.
