2015 BBC Audio Drama Award winners Spiteful Puppet have done it again! This time they've come back with TWO AWARDS from the prestigious New York Festivals World's Best Radio Programs ceremony.
New York Festivals International Radio Program Awards for The World's Best Radio Programs, honours radio programming and promotions in all lengths and formats from radio stations, networks and independent producers from around the globe.
They were nominated in TWO CATEGORIES for 'HOOD: THE SCRIBE OF SHERWOOD'; Best Audio Book (Fiction) and Best Drama Special, coming away with BRONZE in both categories.

This is fantastic news for my friends and colleagues at Spiteful Puppet with whom I worked with on 'HOOD: NOBLE SECRETS' playing BROTHER TUCK. Ironically I was not involved on their award-winning 'HOOD: THE SCRIBE OF SHERWOOD' but I will be back in the next two instalments of 'HOOD' to be released later this year.
Iain Meadows again; “We’re just overwhelmed by this recognition on a world stage at our first time of being nominated. We know the level of expertise represented internationally and that makes these wins even more special. We’re just in the process of finishing the next HOOD chapters, so maybe we’ll have to come back and have a go for the gold!”
The ceremony itself was held on the 22nd June 2015 at “The Manhattan Penthouse”, New York, USA.
