The Awards ceremony was Shown on BBC1 from 1988 to 2000 then later on Channel 4 from 2001-2005 during 2004-2005 it was renamed to T4 Smash Hits Poll Winners Party.

Past presenters have included Phillip Schofield, Simon Mayo, Andi Peters, Lily Savage, Des O'Connor, Ant and Dec, Will Smith, Melanie Sykes, Des Lynam, June Sarpong and Vernon Kay.

Past group winners have included Bros, New Kids on the Block, Take That, Spice Girls, Boyzone, Westlife, Busted and Girls Aloud

The event was notorious for the incident in 1991 involving Phillip Schofield and Carter USM, when the band's performance was cut short, causing them to trash up the stage. Following this, Schofield made a remark about the band's behaviour, their guitarist Fruitbat rugby tackled him to the floor. The band was temporarily banned from performing on television but its ticket sales for its tour soared.[1] [2]
