Award for RMCH TV documentary
The TV documentary series "Kid's Hospital: Your Child in Their Hands"
which was set in Royal Manchester Children's Hospital has just
received a Royal Television Society North West Award for Best
Factual Series. It beat off stiff opposition from Dragons'
Den and Ireland with Simon Reeve to win the award.
The four-part series was made by TV production company Films of
Record and aired on Channel 5 in May. It is a hard-hitting
and emotional journey that focuses on a number of children who are
being treated at the hospital, often for chronic conditions or in
emergency situations, through the eyes of their parents.
Films of Record had previously made two Channel 5 documentaries
on RMCH at Christmas which were broadcast in 2014 and 2015.
