BBC Wales scores Celtic Film success

BBC Wales has picked up more awards than any other broadcaster at the Celtic Film and Television Festival Awards, which celebrate the best of film and television production from Brittany, Cornwall, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
BBC Wales' flagship drama, ‘Belonging’, picked up the prestigious award for Best Drama Series. The soap with attitude, charting the ups and downs of the Lewis family, is returning to screens in the next couple of weeks for its fifth series, with a sixth for next year.
Adrian Masters has made it two years in a row by scooping a win in the Best News Journalist category – an honour he picked up at last year's awards.
BBC Wales also demonstrated its online excellence with success for Celtaidd Oes yr Haearn website in the New Media category.
BBC Wales Controller Menna Richards said: "Congratulations to all our winners.
"The programming represented by Belonging, Celtaidd Oes yr Haearn and Adrian Masters is proof of the high quality talent we have working in BBC Wales.
"The hard work and commitment shown in producing such first class output is much appreciated by our audiences."
