UK indies Rogan Productions, BBC Studios, Atomized, Objective and Quicksilver have collected 2022 Rose d’Or Awards.
Rogan won for best Arts show with Freddie Mercury: The Final Act; Quicksilver, with Passion, for Current Affairs, with Afghanistan: No Country for Women; BBC Studios’ Casualty picked up the award for best Soap; Atomized, with Red Bull Studios won best Documentary, for The Real Mo Farah; and Objective, with Wiip, landed best Comedy for Toast of Tinseltown.
The Emerging Talent Award has gone to 19-year-old British actress Yasmin Finney for her performance in the hugely popular Netflix hit, Heartstopper, about teens who discover their unlikely friendship might be something more as they navigate the complexities of school and young love.
The Lifetime Achievement Award, which honours a television personality for their exceptional contribution to the entertainment industry, was presented to Scottish actor Brian Cox for his outstanding performance in HBO’s global hit Succession, as well as his decades of TV, film and stage success.
Receiving an additional accolade, Succession also picked up the award for best Drama. Brian Cox said: “I just want to thank everyone at Rose d’Or for this wonderful, wonderful recognition of our show Succession…this is an extreme honour and thank you so much.”
Danish actress Sidse Babett Knudsen won the Rose d’Or Performance of the Year Award for her defining role in Borgen, the story of a woman who, against all odds, becomes the first female prime minister of Denmark.
Chair of the Jury, Mark Rowland said: “The Rose d’Or 2022 has given us new stories, situations and creative approaches to delight and inform audience around the world. It has come down to a fantastic group of nominees and to these worthy winners. Huge congratulations to them all. For anyone who hasn’t watched these shows yet, you have a treat in store!”
Jean Philip De Tender, EBU deputy director general/director Media said:
“Great stories are universal. And great storytelling is so much more than reciting lines or pointing a camera. All the winners of this year’s Rose d’Or Awards have achieved something special. They have asked us to dig deeper by engaging our emotions with compelling broadcasts that will resonate long after the final credits have rolled. My congratulations go to them and to the Rose d’Or team for, once again, highlighting an incredible body of work.”
