More from Unsung Hero Jill Stidever on BBC Radio 5 live: "I genuinely did not think I would win. I was shaking like a leaf at the speech.
"I thought not me, even though I have a silly surname. I'm very proud and very humbled. I have a very different view to the one I had this morning.
"This is not my scene. I'm quite happy at the swimming pool and talking in front of a crowd. I also promised my daughter that I wouldn't have tears - but I let her down. In order to cope with this weekend, my doctor increased my dosage of tablets by rather a lot!"
Republic of Ireland diver Oliver Dingley, external - with Britain's James Denny - catch up with singer Susan Boyle: "Cheeky selfie with the row behind."
"I'm very, very honoured," says Paul McGinley. "I need to thank the people of Scotland. Your support was huge. I had 12 great players, 12 great personalities and a great backroom team and vice captains." A short speech from the Ryder Cup captain, which is good news for those in charge of the schedule.
"Paul McGinley rewrites art of captaincy," wrote the Independent, external of the Ryder Cup skipper as his attention to detail helped deliver a memorable weekend in Gleneagles. "The best I've played under," gushed Graeme McDowell of his captain, while Rory McIlroy said after Europe's victory: "He has just been the most wonderful captain". McGinley is without doubt a popular captain.
His team smashed the Americans in the Ryder Cup this summer in a 16½-11½ victory - the largest differential in the competition since 2008 - so it's perhaps no surprise that Paul McGinley is named BBC Sport Personality Coach of the Year.
Clare Balding says it's time to present the Coach of the Year award and who are we to say she's fibbing. Tom Daley and King of the Jungle Carl Froch will present the award to either British swimming coach Bill Furniss, Ryder Cup captain Paul McGinley, Carl Froch's coach Rob McCracken or England women's rugby union team Gary Street. And the winner is...
Steph Ware:, external Female Rowing Legend Katherine Grainger - back in the game for Rio!
Grainger was an Olympic champion in the double sculls with Anna Watkins at London 2012. Bonus points to Steph, by the way, for managing to capture another selfie in the background.
Ireland won the Six Nations, Manchester City the Premier League, Europe retained the Ryder Cup and England's women were crowned world champions - but who will win the Team of the Year award? I'm assuming we'll find out soon, although the show is slightly behind schedule.
Making her second selfie appearance of the evening, it's England Women's Rugby World Cup-winning captain Katy McLean,, external with team-mates Sarah Hunter and Mo Hunt.

"For sport to continue to be successful in Great Britain we still need volunteers and guys who give their time for free."
"I have practice [of a speech]. I had a seven-year-old boy win a race last weekend and he made a little speech thanking us for the medal," continues Jill Stidever. "I have got tears and it was that that was particularly special. It was also special that parents have trusted their children to me over the last few years. I'm not the most conventional but I work new ways to help them. Thank you to all those who have supported me."
A standing ovation for Jill Stidever as she collects the Unsung Hero trophy. Prince Harry is on his feet, so too Jonny Wilkinson. There's whooping and whistling, too, before Gary Linker gives her a mic. "For my team, husband and all the rest who supported me, thank you very much."
We turn our attention to the Unsung Hero award and this year's recipient is swimming coach Jill Stidever. The 77-year-old from Leicester has already been named BBC East Midlands Unsung Hero for 2014 in recognition of her work helping disabled children. Hopefully she still has room in a cabinet for another gong.
You probably already know who they are, but if you need reminding here are the 10 contenders (in alphabetical order): Gareth Bale, Charlotte Dujardin, Carl Froch, Kelly Gallagher & Charlotte Evans, Lewis Hamilton, Rory McIlroy, Jo Pavey, Adam Peaty, Max Whitlock and Lizzy Yarnold.
We've been asking you for your selfies with top sports stars - and you haven't let us down.

And the tempo slows down a touch, the audience relaxes and Gary Lineker drinks a hot lemony drink (probably), as Clean Bandit perform on stage, joined by Jess Glynne who sings their single Rather Be. Voting will close in a little over 20 minutes.
