BBC6 Music picked up two awards at the Sony Awards last night – one Rising Star Award for Jarvis Cocker, while Adam and Joe won best Comedy. In conjunction with its recently announced muchly increased year on year listening figures, this is sure to add to calls to save the station

Elsewhere Scott Mills managed to beat Chris Moyles to win the, cough, Personality of the Year award. While Bono, who seems bent on winning every music related awards ever, won Best Music Special.
