A TV investigation into the financial troubles at Rangers FC is among the nominations at this year’s Scottish awards being held by the British Academy for Film and Television Arts.
BBC Scotland’s ‘Rangers – The Men who Sold the Jerseys’ is up against Eorpa and Travellers in the current affairs category of the awards.
Presented by Mark Daly, the Rangers investigation was broadcast in May.
Say the organisers: “The British Academy Scotland Awards is one of the biggest nights in Scotland’s moving images industry calendar renowned for welcoming and honouring an impressive line-up of stars.”
This year’s ceremony is taking place in Glasgow on the 18th of next month.
