--

The nominees for the television, online and radio 2014 Rose d'Or were announced today by EUROVISION, organisers of the prestigious international entertainment programme awards.

The winners will be decided at the 53rd Rose d'Or Awards ceremony which will be held in Berlin on 17 September. The Rose d'Or Awards define the gold standard of excellence and achievement in television, online and radio entertainment programme making.

Nearly 400 programmes from more than 100 broadcasters and production companies from all over the world were submitted for this year's Rose d'Or awards, breaking the record set last year following its successful relaunch by EUROVISION, operated by the European Broadcasting Union.

There are six categories for television and online video Arts, Factual & Reality Entertainment, Game Show, Comedy, Sitcom, and Entertainment, and three new categories covering radio Comedy, Entertainment, and Reality & Factual Entertainment.

The response from radio has been immensely enthusiastic. We are excited to have identified nine finalists whose entries showcase language and creativity to the highest standards, with an injection of national culture, said Christian Vogg, head of radio. It's public service radio at its best.

The juries are made up of separate judging panels for each category and include professionals renowned for their knowledge and experience within the media world.

Three finalists have been selected for each of the categories:
