digiperson

this look like the BBC awards to ME! I can;t believe none of the other channel won Nothing!

I can understand why Planet Earth and Bleak House are there

BUT BBC one best channel? RUBBISH!

I wonder if we can expect special idents, a la BBC TWO ?

Maybe, just maybe the BBC Press Office only publicised the awards that they had won?

Details on more winners on Digital Spy.

I think BBC One has got quite a nice feel to it at the moment, probably a worthy winner.

Thank you much better now

along with the BBC ones

Channel 4
Deal or No Deal - best daytime programme,
Optomen's Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares best popular factual programme
best documentary programme going to More4's True Stories - Sisters in Law,

ITV
See No Evil: The Moors Murders best single drama ITV Granada's Granada Reports: The Morecambe Bay Cockling Trial taking best news programme.

Best multi-channel show went to MTV's The Virgin Diaries, produced by Tiger Aspect.

Was TV really that bad last year?

That thought also went through my mind.

Well, on-screen self-congratulations seem to be more-or-less obligatory these days (Calendar, BBC Breakfast, GMTV, BBC News 24...), so it wouldn't surprise me.

And of course BBC Four was sporting a 'Channel Of The Year' graphic on its idents until recently.

Life On Mars was great as well, although I agree with the rest.

Don't forget that BBC's North West Tonight is an RTS programme of the year - as well!!!!!

Am I seeing things but Granada Reports winning an award - unheard of during Charles Allen's reign - shows how much he destroyed the company!!!! Does this mean that Granada (or ITV) are actually begining to pull their socks up and started to make television news/programmes again rather than just piles of cheap filling rubbish!!!!

Anyway good on G.R. and the rest of Granada's news team on winning the award!
