Television documentaries should be powerful pieces of factual story-
telling that help audiences make sense of major stories across
subjects as diverse as politics, religion and science.
We are looking for single documentaries, or an extended themed
programme sequence or series, that have covered a topical subject in
an interesting and engaging way.
The programme should provide the audience with an insight that is
difficult to get elsewhere.
Your entry might be a documentary that reports on a major
international event or it might reveal a hidden story from somewhere in
the world that has not made it on to mainstream news bulletins.
We’re looking for superior production values, clear presentation and
first class editing.
The story must be explained without bias and provide sufficient context
so that people unfamiliar with the story can understand the subject.
All documentaries entered must have been transmitted or distributed
online between 1 June 2014 and 30 June 2015.
