Mrs Brown's Boys wins TV prize

BBC SCOTLAND sitcom Mrs Brown's Boys won the best situation comedy at the prestigious National Television Awards.

The show, created by and starring Irish writer and performer Brendan O'Carroll, is recorded at Pacific Quay in Glasgow.

It saw off competition from Absolutely Fabulous, Benidorm and The Big Bang Theory.

O'Carroll thanked fans of the show, which stars many of his real-life family including his wife, his sister and his daughter, and joked: "The only person that's not in the show is my mother and that's because she is dead."
