PRESENTER Sam Nixon and his television partner Mark Rhodes are celebrating after winning a second Bafta award.
They were named best presenters at the Children’s Academy Awards in Camden on Sunday for Sam and Mark’s Big Christmas Wind-Up - the Christmas special of their show Sam and Mark’s Big Friday Wind Up.
Sam, 29, from Monk Bretton, said: “It was amazing. This was the third time we have been nominated. We won a Bafta in 2013, but missed out last year so we weren’t sure if we would get it. But it was lovely when they called our name out.”
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
