The award ceremony that celebrates the achievements of the known and gives exposure to the unknown hardworking personalities was well received by the huge number of guests that graced the launch eager to find out who made it to final nomination list. Asked what she thought about the 2010 nominees, founder of Pauline Long explained, “the public nominated overwhelmingly for their favourite stars but it was down to the panel of BEFFTA members to decide who makes it to the final list, once again this year we have definitely discovered some great talent that needed recognition and we hope the public will continue to support them”. Voting is expected to begin on 24th September.
This year’s BEFFTA awards night will take place at Central Hall Westminster, London in the Black History Month on 30th October. The prestigious red carpet event is expected to be star-studded with a comeback performance from Stedman of Five star and other talented artists.
