“That was a BIG mistake” | BBC asks Huw Edwards to repay salary he paid after arrest
EXCLUSIVE: Huw Edwards is to receive awards for his coverage of major royal events, including Queen Elizabeth II's funeral, after pleading guilty to accessing child abuse images.
BAFTA, the Royal Television Society (RTS) and the Television and Radio Industries Club (TRIC) have ruled out stripping Edwards of awards for presenting BBC broadcasts of major national events.
The three organizations said the awards recognized the efforts of the production teams, and not just Edwards' presentation skills.
