Mosul has won the top documentary prize at the Broadcast Awards. Congratulations to directors Olivier Sarbil and James Jones, as well as production manager Pip Lacey.

“It humanises a story that is complex, difficult and remote,” said one judge, adding: “The documentary is beautifully made with incredible access, and is filmed with compassion.”

Another summed up the judges’ collective feelings: “This is an extraordinary film that takes you into the heart of battle through the eyes of some real heroes. It contains great depth and complexity.”
