It’s hard to believe that it’s been almost one month since I started my first job in PR! Time has flown and work at MacLaurin Media has been busy from day one! I’m loving the freshness of a new challenge - after graduating I worked in retail management while I scoured London for the perfect PR job. I’m also really enjoying being part of a lively team and getting involved in all the various projects we work on here.
Right now, I’m working on the National TV Awards. The longlist for the 2012 awards has been announced today and voting is officially open. There is plenty of tough competition and some brand new categories. The Only Way is Essex and Made In Chelsea are new additions to the Reality Programme category and it will be interesting to see who comes out on top – especially considering the nation’s obsession with reality TV!
Most Popular Talk Show will undoubtedly be one of the most contentious categories this year. Following Jonathan Ross’ controversial switch to ITV, and Graham Norton taking his place at the BBC, we see the two top talk show hosts go head-to-head, along with other favourites, Alan Carr (Alan Carr: Chatty Man) and Rob Brydon (The Rob Brydon Show).
Of course, it’s set to be another great night for the nation’s favourite Tyneside duo, Ant & Dec, who have received an incredible five nominations!
I’m looking forward to seeing if my personal favourite, the X Factor, can storm to the top of the Talent Show category against the hugely popular Britain’s Got Talent and Strictly Come Dancing.
I hope to be adding more exciting news to the MacLaurin Media blog soon!
