Stars from radio turned out last night for a swanky awards bash in central London.
Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood won two gongs for his show on Absolute Radio at the Arqiva Commercial Radio Awards.
The wrinkly rocker, who also loves painting, collected the gong for specialist programme of the year.
The weekly guest slot on Wood’s show was named best feature at Westminster Bridge Park Plaza Hotel bash.
It was the second double triumph in two years for the 65-year-old. He won two awards at last year’s ceremony.
