'MORE CANALS THAN VENICE' just misses out on a Midlands RTS Award

A great honour to be nominated for an RTS Midlands Centre Award.

Had a terrific time last night at the Royal Television Society Midlands Centre Gala Dinner & Awards 2014 held at the National Motorcycle Museum with the good folk of The Birmingham Film Company, where we were hoping to scoop the Best Factual Programme Award for 'MORE CANALS THAN VENICE'.

Friends, colleagues and hangers on from The Birmingham Film Company, all dressed up with definitely somewhere to go!

The ceremony is to be held on October 30th. There's some tough competition in the Best Factual Programme category, so fingers crossed! Here's the article announcing the news ...
