<p>Viewers will choose the country&#8217;s favourite comedian at the British Comedy Awards.</p>
<p>Geordie duo Ant and Dec have been nominated along with Michael McIntyre, Harry Hill, Miranda Hart and David Mitchell for the People&#8217;s Choice Award for the King or Queen of Comedy.</p>
<p>The winner, decided by phone vote, will be announced at the ceremony at the O2 in Greenwich, south-east London.</p>
<p>This year sees the first ever nomination for a children&#8217;s comedy show, with CBBC&#8217;s Horrible Histories shortlisted in the Sketch Show category.</p>
<p>Hart and Hill lead the pack with four nominations each, while Sarah Millican is up for the Best Female Comic and Best Female Comedy Breakthrough Artist awards.</p>
<p>New categories at the ceremony, hosted by Jonathan Ross, include Best Comic Actor and Actress and Best Comedy Entertainment Personality.</p>
<p>Ross has been the long-standing face of the show, which is transferring from ITV to Channel 4 after 20 years in a three-year deal.</p>
<p>He said: &#8220;The British Comedy Awards is, in my opinion, the most exciting, entertaining and challenging award show on British TV. I&#8217;m delighted that Channel 4 want me to carry on hosting it.&#8221;</p>
<p>The event has attracted its fair share of scandal over the years, including gags which have backfired as well as the voting controversy.</p>
<p>Channel 4 has promised to bring the ceremony &#8220;bang up to date, reinvigorating the brand and reverting to a live broadcast, injecting spontaneity, excitement and edge into the new-look awards show&#8221;.</p>
