After a week of voting, the results in the four categories of The Drum Fauxlympics are now in. Who has captured the heart of the nation and won gold...or better yet - The Golden Chip?

Here, the winners are revealed category by category, with John Jessup - chairman of the Chip Shop Awards judging panel and creative director at Leo Burnett - ruling on the winner of the Chip at the end.

Please remember that votes were counted at 5pm yesterday, 9 August, and so results are based at numbers at that time.

Thanks to everyone who took part - from all those who took time to make their fabulous entries, to those who took part in the voting on Facebook.

The Golden Chip: Viagra

John Jessup, who saw the winners just with the names of the ads, and did not know which individuals or agencies created each, ruled this ad, by HROC's Chris Marshall as the winner of the Golden Chip.He said: "To sum up: From a strong field I think Viagra was the HARDEST to beat, it STOOD UP well against the opposition and was TUMESCENT in true chip shop tradition that's why it should COME FIRST."
