The 29th Awards took place at the Grosvenor House Hotel, London on Wednesday, February 4 2009. Pictures of the awards can be obtained from the NSPCC Press Office.

The chair of the Awards Committee is Jason Solomons and Dee Pilgrim is the celebrity co-ordinator.

      British and Irish film makers are eligible for most, if not all, of our awards. The word British in the title of some of our awards is simply to distinguish them from the general best actor/director/film awards. Irish citizens are eligible for these awards but many Irish actors and directors work on what are technically British films and their work deserves recognition. There is no intention to suggest that Irish talent is British should an Irish citizen be nominated in the "British" categories and all Irish nominees know this. It simply recognises the complex nature of film making, a collaborative affair often crossing national boundaries and anyone who wishes to raise the matter should do so with Jason Solomons, current chair of the Awards Committee.

William Russell, Hon Gen Secretary.
