The nominations for this year's Frank Gillard Awards have been announced today.
Μύ
A record number of 25 stations have achieved nominations in the awards which celebrate Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Local Radio.
Μύ
Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ London 94.9 leads the field by being nominated in five categories and
Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Berkshire with three will be hoping that lightning can strike twice - last
year the station converted all three of its nominations to gold.
Μύ
In the Breakfast category Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ London 94.9's Jono and Jo Breakfast Show pits its
metropolitan strength against the breakfast offerings of Mark Cummings from
Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Gloucestershire and Rod Whiting of Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Lincolnshire.
Μύ
Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ London 94.9 also features in the Coverage of a News Story category where its
rolling news coverage of July 7 2005 is up against Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Shropshire's
Herceptin story and the Danielle Beccan murder trial from Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Nottingham.
Μύ
For the Programme Presenter award, Nick Pandolfi from Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Suffolk is
hoping to repeat his 2004 success in 2006 if he can hold off Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio
Sheffield's Toby Foster or Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Northampton's Bernie Keith.
Μύ
This year's Sony Community Award winner, the mental health campaign Hearing
Voices from Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Hereford and Worcester, is hoping for a Gillard Gold to add to
its trophy cabinet in the Social Action category.
Μύ
Other nominations are
for Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Cornwall's Sea Sense and Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Lancashire's Rice Appeal.
Μύ
There will be a new name on the prestigious Station of the Year award - none of the three nominated stations has won it in the seven years of the
Frank Gillard Awards.
Μύ
Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ London 94.9 gained bronze in 2004 but Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio
Manchester and Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Berkshire are new to the category.
Μύ
The winners will be announced on 28 September at the Gillard Awards
dinner in Windermere, Cumbria.
Μύ
Richard Bilton will
be the ceremony presenter and Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Deputy Director-General, Mark Byford, will
present the coveted miniature busts of Frank Gillard to the winners.
