Director Mat Whitecross took to the Roundhouse stage to accept the prize for his documentary saying, “In the words of Noel Gallagher, ‘I applaud your wisdom’,” Whitecross then added to laughter, “In the words of Liam, ‘bananas’.”

Speaking with the Daily Star at the ceremony after scooping the prize he said: “Liam and Noel Gallagher were really generous. Everything we asked for they gave us.”

And getting the rumor mill turning Whitcross added,

“Liam said he wants to make a sequel. I don’t know if he was joking or not.”

Both Gallagher brothers were no shows at the awards ceremony. Only Liam made it to the film’s premier last October that, predictably, led to another tirade against his older brother. With Liam’s new album coming out soon, their infamous rivalry is pretty bad at the moment, with some major twitter put downs being posted. Liam’s upping the ante now and saying he’s going to do Noel songs better than Noel himself. The publicity is doing the job though with anticipation for Liam’s new album is pretty high at the moment. Mat Whitecross has said the album is “Epic” and sounded like Velvet Underground.
