Last night (Tuesday 20 March) the ceremony for the Royal Television Society Programmes Awards 2018 were held at the Grosvenor Hotel in London. The awards celebrate TV programmes which, have made a material and positive contribution to their genre, either because their originality in form or content has in some way moved the genre on, or perhaps created a new genre, or because their quality has set standards which other programme-makers can learn from and emulate.
