Doctor Who was named Best Drama of the year by Digital Spy readers in our 2013 end of year survey.
The 50th anniversary of the show, capped by a special episode featuring David Tennant, Tom Baker and Peter Capaldi, was also named the Entertainment Moment of The Year in our end of year survey, which saw over 22,600 people casting a vote.
The Doctor Who connection continued throughout our TV categories. One-time Doctor and 50th guest star David Tennant was named Best Actor for his role in Broadchurch, with current Doctor Matt Smith in second place.
Tennant's Broadchurch co-star Olivia Colman, who has also appeared in Doctor Who, was named Best Actress on 25.0%, with Downton Abbey's Maggie Smith in second place and current companion Jenna Coleman in third.
The Best Comedy of the year was judged by you to be The Big Bang Theory, which won a comprehensive 28.0% of the vote, while I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! was named Best Reality TV Show.
BBC One was named the Best Channel of the year, knocking its major rival ITV into second place and - perhaps surprisingly - spinoff channel E4 pipped its big brother Channel 4 to third place.
Driven by the success of his Chatty Man talkshow, Alan Carr retained his Best Comedian prize from DS readers, beating Miranda Hart into second place and Jack Whitehall into third.
