Steven Moffat - Special Award Recipient in 2012
How absolutely wonderful for Steven!!!
,3294,BA.html
Steven Moffat, television writer & producer of both Sherlock & Doctor Who will be presented with the 2012 Television Special Award.
The Award will be presented to Steven Moffat in recognition of his outstanding creative writing contribution to television. From his first scripted drama Press Gang in 1989, for which he won his first BAFTA, Moffat’s vast body of work includes titles such as Stay Lucky, Joking Apart, Murder Most Horrid, Chalk, Jekyll and Coupling.
In 2008, it was announced that he would become head writer and executive producer of Doctor Who and was instrumental in the casting of the 11th Doctor, Matt Smith.
In collaboration with Mark Gatiss in 2009, he created Sherlock, following Sherlock Holmes and Dr John Watson's adventures in 21st century London. The episode entitled “A Scandal In Belgravia" from the second series earned Steven a Television Craft Award for Writer at the 2012 ceremony as well as picking up BAFTAs in two other categories.
Well deserved!

Mycroft’s popularity doesn’t surprise me at all. He is, after all, incredibly beautiful, clever and well-dressed. And beautiful. Did I mention that?

Steven Moffat : @steven_moffat
Thanks all, re: the special BAFTA award. My favourite interview question so far: "Would you have preferred a proper BAFTA?"
tee hee!

But the thing is, we've taken away all the things that can possibly have happened, so I suppose the only thing that's left, even though it seems really weird, must be the thing that did happen, in fact. (Miss Marple)

Re: Steven Moffat - Special Award Recipient in 2012
This is hands down one of my favorite awards clips ever, from the presenters, Benedict and Matt, who had a great schtick going to Steven's acceptance speech itself. My fav part, a pan out to the audience when he thanked Sue, it was the sweetest most endearing and genuine smile I think I've ever seen a wife give at her husband's words.
