Over the last decade, British cinemagoers have made an obsession of raving about Quentin Tarantino, and their appropriation of the cult director continued on the awards night.

Quentin was thrilled to recieve the Icon Of The Decade award from the magazine, and took his time explaining repeatedly how Empire really was his 'favourite movie magazine in the world!'

The Kill Bill director added: 'I promise you I would not be saying that if it were not the truth because to say that about a movie magazine that is like my religion, alright?'

Alright, Q. Point taken.
