Hit comedies The Office and Little Britain will battle it out at this year's comedy awards.
The shows are among the BBC's most successful offerings and will go head to head in two categories at the British Comedy Awards.
Little Britain and The Office Christmas Special have both been nominated in the best TV comedy section alongside Nighty Night.
David Walliams and Matt Lucas, who write and star in Little Britain, have a joint nomination for best TV comedy actor and will go head to head with the man behind The Office, Ricky Gervais.
Walliams won the best comedy newcomer award at last year's ceremony.
The Office appeared on our screens for the last time at Christmas. Little Britain meanwhile is in its second series and recently attracted record ratings on the Beeb's digital channel BBC Three.
