Jonathan Ross has stepped down from presenting this year's show

Jonathan Ross and Russell Brand nominated for British Comedy Awards

Disgraced presenters up for gongs

Friday, 14 November 2008

Jonathan Ross has been shortlisted for a British Comedy Award, despite being suspended by the BBC.

The comedian, 47, decided to step down from hosting the ceremony after the scandal he and pal Russell Brand caused over their lewd calls to veteran actor Andrew Sachs on Radio 2.

But he's still been nominated for Best Comedy Show for his programme Friday Night With Jonathan Ross.

He's up against Harry Hill's TV Burp and C4's The Sunday Night Project.

Russell, 33 - who resigned over the controversy - has been nominated for Best Live Act.

The ceremony will be held on 6 December.
