Gold Award

Ward 13 - James Ewing - Bournemouth University

This was a remarkable and highly polished programme about the mortuary at Leeds General Infirmary which one judge described as “amazing voices, nicely woven, great characters with some very original observations which only radio could give with a nicely timed twist of sentiments at the end to evoke the spirit of Parker.”

 

Silver Award

Hello, I’m Half-Caste - Rhianne Boland - University of Westminster

Rhianne’s highly creative feature was based around John Agard’s famous poem Hello, I’m Half-Caste combining an interview with the poet and people’s experiences of the being called Half-Caste.

 

Bronze Award

Keeping an Open Mind - Michael Umney - Goldsmith’s College, University of London

This was a controversial feature which explored ‘self-trepanning’ – the idea that drilling a hole into your skull could bring on a permanent ‘high’.
