Our Annual Awards (inassociationwithTheScene, everyFridayinTheIrishDailyStar) are in full swing with a whopping 101,153 votes and counting... Your fingers must be knackered. Although our strict One Vote Per Category Per Day rule should play its part in keeping your digits intact.

Here be a brief recap of the contenders so far: Growing Up Gay is leading the stakes in the Best Irish TV Show, followed by Jedward: Let Loose. Ryan Tubridy is currently favourite to win Best TV Presenter, while you believe Today FM's Ray Foley is well raunchy in the radio department. Dara O'Briain currently tops Best Irish Comedian; Inception is on its way to be your Film of the Year; and Harry Potter is whipping Twilight in the Teen Movie stakes. It's neck and neck between Corrie and EastEnders for Best Soap; David Norris is your current favourite to take the presidency (a small comfort considering Bertie Ahern is currently in fifth place - what is wrong with you people?!); and Best Irish Act is being merrily being hijacked by the Rubberbandits.

If you fancy wiling away a few minutes of a Friday, whisk yourself over to the Annual Awards Page to see how the rest of the nominees for the likes of Best Cinema, Best Restaurant, and our Over-Exposure Award are getting on.

Can you believe TV3 turned down Fade Street...
