A living example of age being a state-of-mind. My admiration also goes to ARRI for their generosity in sponsoring this impressive award. It takes pride of place amongst others after an unforgettable 2016. My thanks are also to the BSC board, and to Audra, Helen and Frances, for the parts you have played.
