The winners are revealed on Monday, November 30, at Kings Place in London, in a ceremony hosted by Ania Magliano of Saturday Night Live UK. The Rose d'Or is in its 65th annual edition and describes its remit as excellence and innovation across global television and audio programme making. A 78-name shortlist is long by design: the awards function as a survey of what the international industry made this year, and the spread across 19 countries, from Japanese public broadcasting to Turkish serial drama, is the point of the exercise.
