Then 2 programmes I have worked on have been shortlisted for the Sandford St. Martin Radio Awards...

The Story of the King James Bible – Broadcast by BBC Radio 4 on 5th January 2011.  Producer Rosie Dawson and Presented by James Naughtie.
The King James Bible is everywhere – in  commercials, film titles, novels, music, even the way we speak.    “The Great monument to English prose” but how and why has it achieved such status? In the final programme to mark the 400th anniversary, James Naughtie assesses the legacy of the King James Bible.

The Choice – Heather Pratten – Broadcast by BBC Radio 4 on 12 August 2010. Producers  Dawn Bryan and Amanda Hancox. Presented by Michael Buerk.

Heather Pratten’s life has been dogged by Huntington’s chorea which  is an inherited condition that attacks the brain and destroys the personality before leading to a slow and painful death. It turned her husband from a kind man into a stranger and now she has to watch her children to see where and how it would appear in the next generation. 

The Sony Radio Academy Awards winners will be announced on the evening of Monday, May 9th at The Grosvenor House Hotel, London and The Sandford St. Martin Trust 2011 Awards will be presented at Lambeth Palace on Tuesday 17th May.
