  • October 2020 Message from the Chair Dear
    October 2020 Message from the Chair Dear Colleague RTS PROGRAMME AWARDS 2021 I am delighted to be the new Chair of the RTS Programme Awards. These are one of the gold standard awards in our industry and are an important showcase of the extraordinary talent evident across all genres in British television. We have taken on board feedback from the industry following last year’s awards. Our aim, as ever, is to reflect the changing television landscape and to make sure the categories recognise the kinds of programmes and talent that make up today's schedules and the best content in Britain. Following discussions with judges and entering companies we have implemented the following changes: • Updated eligibility period: The eligibility period will now follow the calendar year. For this changeover year entries will be accepted from programmes broadcast between 1 November 2019 and 31 December 2020. Please refer to the Conditions of Entry for further details. Please be aware that in order to accommodate this change we will not be able to allow extensions to the entry deadlines. • Minimum duration: We have introduced a minimum duration of 10 minutes (with the maximum duration still 15 minutes) for all performance categories • Comedy Entertainment: We have introduced a new Comedy Entertainment category alongside the existing Entertainment category. • Allocation of entries: in the genre and writing categories we will now limit the number of entries per category by broadcaster rather than by channel. Details of the new limit can be found within the description of each category. Entries in the performance categories remain at 5 per channel.
