Sacha Baron Cohen honoured for 'outstanding' comedy

Sacha Baron Cohen has been honoured with an outstanding achievement gong at the British Comedy Awards in London.

It comes 13 years after he won best newcomer at the event, which was aired on Channel 4 on Wednesday night.

Accepting his statue from Sir Ben Kingsley in the guise of Ali G, Baron-Cohen said: "I is grown up now. I ain't living in my nan's house anymore. I am living in her garage".
