Oh, the compensations of insomnia - finding stuff : Shortlists Announced For The Specsavers Crime Thriller Awards 2011 Posted at 1:36AM Friday 19 Aug 2011
Brutal, bloodied and with a forensic approach to detail, the CWA Daggers shortlist contains a powerhouse of literary talent. For all their detective ability and searing insights, even the authors themselves cannot be expected to work out how these plots will end. The winners for eleven awards will be announced at The Specsavers Crime Thriller Awards on Friday 7 October at the Grosvenor House.
The awards include the CWA Gold Dagger for the Best Crime Novel of the Year, the CWA Ian Fleming Steel Dagger for the Best Thriller of the Year, and the CWA John Creasey (New Blood) Dagger for the Best New Crime Writer of the Year, along with the Film and TV Daggers.
THE TV DAGGER
Case Histories (Ruby Films, BBC One)
Luther (BBC One)
The Shadow Line (Company Pictures, BBC Two)
Zen (Left Bank Pictures, BBC One)
BEST ACTOR DAGGER
Idris Elba for Luther (BBC One)
Lars Mikkelsen for The Killing (Arrow Films, BBC4)

That looks like the date the awards ceremony will be broadcast, PGG, sorry: www.itv.com/crimethrillerawards/ The actual ceremony is 7 October. There's got to be a good chance Rufus will attend.....isn't there? (and now we just need somebody to be able to record it.....any volunteers?) Wouldn't that be a just and fitting kick in the n*ts for DC if Rufus ran off with both awards? ;D Oh, yes!!!
