We know we are about to enter into what is commonly called "awards season", when there is more back-slapping than a massage parlour, but what better way to look back over the year that saw Zayn leave 1D and a brand new Star Wars, than by handing out a few awards?
There's no red carpet or emotional speeches but you'll get enough of those in the next couple of months. What we can offer you though, are categories for "Best Wardrobe Malfunction" and "Least Deserved Payrise". So, without further ado, scroll on for our unconventional entertainment awards of 2015.
Best Musical Performance: The guitarist in Mad Max: Fury Road
Forget the drummer in Whiplash and the choir in Pitch Perfect 2, the standout musician on celluloid this year was a man in a gimp mask strapped to the front of a truck in Mad Max. What? Who? Why? So. Many. Questions.
Wardrobe Malfunction Of The Year: Madonna at the Brits
When the Queen of Pop failed to untie her cape and a dancer yanked it off her as she was performing "Living For Love" at the ceremony in February, it at least injected some excitement into an otherwise dreadfully boring show.
Most Unlikely Centre Court Punter: Drake
We all know that Drizzy enjoys a three stroke but apparently he's also partial to a tennis stroke. The rapper was photographed having the time of his life at Wimbledon this year before it emerged that he and Serena Williams had been dating. Perhaps. Maybe. Probably.
Rex
Worst Hashtag Of The Year: #CUT4ZAYN
When Zayn Malik announced he was leaving One Direction in March, some young fans suggested they should self-harm as a way of persuading Malik to backtrack on his decision to leave the band to be “a normal 22-year-old", and the worrying hashtag spread rapidly on Twitter.

Acronym Of The Year: TFI
You might have had to consult the Urban Dictionary to keep up with the meanings of WUU2, SMH, CBA etc. but you probably already knew about TFI. When TFI Friday returned to our screens in June, it was just as fun and unpredictable as the first time round. Except for Lewis Hamilton, who shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a talk show.
Channel 4
Cover of The Year: Call Me Caitlyn, Vanity Fair
Despite competition from New York magazine's powerful Bill Cosby cover – which depicted 35 women who had accused the comedian of assaulting them, or a naked Miley hugging a pig on Paper, cover of the year has to go to Caitlyn Jenner's debut on Vanity Fair, which went on to become their bestselling issue in five years.
Best Agent: Harrison Ford's
We don't know their name, but we salute whoever it was that negotiated Ford's alleged fee of $25 million plus a 0.5% share of the film's gross earnings to revisit his role as Han Solo in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. After the biggest opening weekend of all time, and becoming the fastest film to ever make $1 billion, he's basically earned, well... let's just say Ally McBeal must have received something pretty special for Christmas this year.
Disney
Biggest "Can't We All Just Get Along?" Moment: Kermit and Miss Piggy breaking up
In a big year for celebrity break-ups (Gwen and Gavin, Ben and Jennifer), none hurt as much as when Miss Piggy and Kermit called it a day back in August.
Best Duet: Stevie Wonder and, er, James Corden
If you'd told us a few years ago that the guy from Gavin and Stacey would drive musicians around in his car in Los Angeles, singing with them, we would have been horrified. But James Corden has truly conquered the US and this session with Stevie Wonder, as part of his ongoing series Carpool Karaoke on The Late Late Show, was really rather touching.
Best Acceptance Speech: Amy Schumer
There were some stand out speeches this year, including Patricia Arquette calling out the gender wage gap at the Oscars and Viola Davis' emotional address at the Emmys. But our favourite speech of the year? It has to be Amy Schumer's at the UK Glamour Awards where she told the audience: "I'm probably like 160lbs right now and I can catch a dick whenever I want." It really was her year.
Rex
Least Deserved Pay Rise Of The Year: Jeremy Clarkson
After the Top Gear 's presenter's contract wasn't renewed by the BBC when he allegedly hit one of the show's producers, he made a deal with Amazon Prime for a new car show that will apparently see his salary increase from £1 million a year to £10 million. Seems fair.

Biggest Flop: Tidal
When the world's richest musicians got together to complain that they were not earning enough money and intended to start an artist owned platform, the public didn't take kindly to it. In the end Tidal was a bigger flop than Mortdecai. What a wash out.
Unexpected Tears Award: the Rugby World Cup
When the biggest sporting event of the year began in October, we thought it was all brawn, thighs, and tries. But then something odd happened: rugby became emotional. Between the first openly gay referee, Nigel Owens, overseeing the grand final, and New Zealand's Sonny Bill Williams handing his winners' medal to a young fan who ran onto the field, and the premature death of Jonah Lomu just days after the final at Twickenham, the rugby unexpectedly brought a tear to our eye.

Best Marketing Campaign: Courtney Barnett
It was a breakthrough year for the 28-year-old Australian singer, her debut album Sometimes I Sit And Think, Sometimes I Just Sit, about malaise and existentialism Down Under, came second in a critics' best of the year poll of polls, second only to Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp A Butterfly, and ahead of Father John Misty's I Love You, Honeybear. When huge billboards declaring "Nobody Really Cares If You Don't Go To The Party", the name of one of her singles, were erected all over the country in August, they provided the perfect Instagram snapshot for what everyone secretly fears.

Worst Ending: Downton Abbey
Not since Roseanne woke up from her fever dream, or someone on The L Word killed Jenny Schecter, has a much-loved television show been dealt such a rubbish finale. When the two hour special of Downton went out on Christmas Day, there were more happy endings than in Disney's back catalogue. And everyone knows that's not the way to go out with a bang.
