"Super proud to be a part of this wonderful team. We are always happy to get into work - such is the culture of the show. - but there'll definitely be an extra spring in the step this week!" he continued.
"Personally I've never won an individual award, I was in a bit of shock! But I still see it as a team accolade - and I’ll keep it at the studio so we can all look at it! The most important thing is that you’re all enjoying the show. We will continue to try our best."

Viewers who tuned into Monday's edition of Morning Live will have noticed Gethin's absence. The presenter usually fronts the show four or five days a week but missed the broadcast to attend the first day of rehearsals for a pantomime production of Cinderella, which runs at the New Theatre in Cardiff in December.
Gethin is set to play Prince Charming in the show, which also stars radio presenter Owain Wyn Evans and panto star Mike Doyle.
Taking to Instagram on Monday, he shared a video filmed in the centre of Cardiff. Gethin told his followers: "I'm in Cardiff today for the first day of rehearsals for panto. Obviously we've learned our lines, the script and our songs, he says."
© BBC/James StackDetailing his busy schedule, he continued: "I'm going to be diving between Morning Live and panto for the next couple of weeks and then it's going to be a busy run-in to Christmas. I can't wait."
The show will play in the New Theatre from Saturday 7 December until Sunday 5 January 2025.
