Winning two awards was the BBC’s “The State Funeral of HM Queen Elizabeth II” which won for sound in factual (Peter Bridges, Matthew Charles, Conrad Fletcher, Julian Gough, Andy James, Andy Payne) and director for multi-camera.

BAFTA’s Emerging Talent: Fiction award went to writer Pete Jackson for “Somewhere Boy,” while Emerging Talent: Factual saw producer-director Charlie Melville win for “John & Joe Bishop: Life After Deaf.”
