The Royal Television Society has announced the winners of its Television Journalism Awards 2018.
Held last night at the London Hilton in Park Lane, the Awards seek to recognise creative and excellent journalism by organisations whose broadcasts are transmitted on a UK-based platform, or who create online video content from a UK production base.
The BBC stole the show, winning 11 awards in total, including the Daily News Programme of the Year for BBC News at Ten, and both News Coverage awards - the Home award for The Grenfell Tower Fire and the International award for Yemen.
Sky News won the News Channel of the Year award, and was also presented with the Breaking News award for its coverage of the Manchester Terror Attack.
Victoria Derbyshire Programme won Interview of the Year for its football abuse revelations.
This year's winner of the RTS's Outstanding Contribution award was Dorothy Byrne. Having started her career in local newspapers, she went on to run ITV's The Big Story where her formidable story-telling skills and fertile ideas were brilliant assets. She has been at the helm of Channel 4's journalistic output for many years, where her programmes have garnered many awards; she has also nurtured the careers of innumerable television journalists, especially women, and ensured that Channel 4 supports an MA in investigative journalism to bring people from different backgrounds into the field.
The Judges' Award, which recognises an outstanding contribution to the advancement of Television Journalism in the past year, was awarded to the 2017 UK Election Exit Polls led by Sir John Curtice.
