Channel 4 tops shortlist for Broadcast Awards 2016

19 November 2015

The shortlist for the Broadcast awards 2016 was announced last night, with Channel 4 securing a really rather wonderful 27 nominations. This put the broadcaster “comfortably ahead” (Broadcast’s words, not ours) “of BBC1’s 17, and 10 each for BBC2 and ITV.”

We would list every Channel 4 programme nominated, but it would take too long, and frankly, there probably isn’t enough room on the internet. Also, we’re too busy (Come Dine with Me doesn’t watch itself, you know?!) But special mention to the marvellous The Tribe, the fabulous Cyberbully, and the incandescent No Offence, all of which have been nominated in two categories. If you’re so inclined, the entire list of nominations is here. (Warning – other broadcasters do occasionally feature).

That’s pretty much it from us. This feels a bit short. Um. Due to get cold over the weekend. What would you have in your ideal sandwi (That’s enough – Ed)
