Killing Eve nominated for Rose d'Or Award

\'Killing Eve\' has been nominated at the prestigious Rose d\'Or Awards 2019.

Phoebe Waller-Bridge\'s hugely popular spy thriller - which stars Sandra Oh and Jodie Corner as M15 agent Eve Polastri and assassin Villanelle respectively - has been named on the shortlist ahead of the ceremony\'s 58th annual celebration, which will be hosted by Sir Lenny Henry at London\'s Kings Place on December 1.

The programme finds itself competing in the Drama category alongside \'Chernobyl\', \'Years & Years\', \'Succession\', \'Escape at Dannemora\' and \'8 Days: To The Moon And Back\'.

'28 Years Later' releases its first trailer 17 years later

The shortlist was voted for by 60 international judges made up of media industry professionals, chaired by \'The Bridge\' star Sofia Helin.

Speaking about the nominations, she said: "The shortlist for the Rose d\'Or awards this year is brilliantly diverse, which reflects the outstanding and varied output of entertainment programming we have seen in the last year across the globe.

"With a record-breaking amount of entries this year, it is an incredibly exciting time for the Rose d\'Or Awards as they near their 60th anniversary. Our congratulations to all nominated."
