Nominations announced for the RTS Craft & Design Awards 2021 Company News November 3, 2021
The nominations for the RTS Craft & Design Awards 2021, sponsored by Apple TV , have been announced.
The winners will be revealed on Monday 22nd November, at the London Hilton on Park Lane.
Across the 29 competitive categories, BBC One leads the way with 21 nominations, including four for its hit drama His Dark Materials, produced by Bad Wolf for BBC One and HBO, and three for Mammoth Screen's The Serpent. Channel 4 gathered 10 nods, five of which are for Working Title Television's We Are Lady Parts across a range of categories including the Casting Award which is now in its second year. Other nominees for that category include ITV's The Pembrokeshire Murders and BBC Two and HBO's Industry.
Welcoming entries from both broadcasters and individual crafts people, the awards celebrate excellence in broadcast television and aim to recognise the huge variety of skills and processes involved in programme making.
Chair of the Awards, Ade Rawcliffe, said: The shortlist of nominees is a testament to the unique, genre-defining programming that has been made in the UK over the past year and the talented crafts people in our industry. The juries have once again had their work cut out for them and we are very much looking forward to coming together to celebrate all the nominees and crown the winners later this month.
