Teams and talent from across the broadcast industry gathered in central London for the TVBAwards, which returned for its second year bigger and bolder. The art deco Bloomsbury Ballroom was a suitably grand venue for the event, which this year included more awards and new, more diverse categories. The evening was a celebration of success across a range of disciplines, as the long-awaited announcements of each award winner were revealed, to rapturous audience applause.
One of the highlights of the evening was the presentation of the Lifetime Achievement honour, which this year was awarded to broadcasting industry veteran and owner of Bakewell House consultancy, Adrian Scott.
TVBEurope would like to congratulate all finalists and winners and thank everyone who came along and helped contribute to such a successful and memorable night.
