Rather to my surprise, I’ve won (or part won, or shared in the winning of) an award for my radio drama Gaza. It’s the Clarion Award, which was given for the radio series From Fact to Fiction, to which I contributed one 15 minute episode.
Still, even a tiny minuscule chip off the edges of an award for a very short play is good enough for me. It beats my abject failure to win a BAFTA for my episode of the TV series Rebus (I was short-listed for the Best Newcomer award, but then some smarty-pants noticed that I’d had over a dozen Bill episodes broadcast, and hence wasn’t strictly speaking a newcomer, and so I was de-nominated – sob!)
Anyway, I’m proud to have a stake in this glorious shard of an award, and thanks to Sasha and the rest of the team.

Huzzah and hoorah for your award winning shenanigans!
I do hope this was judged honestly, and that the floating PALMER HEAD OF EVIL had no part in this decision.
*eep, dare I think it?!*
Ouch — losing out on a Bafta on a sheer technicality!
Better luck with the Hugo
Best,
