Real Lads of Lockdown bags two wins at the RTS Northern Ireland Student Television Awards

Ulster University, Belfast, student Aidan Rafferty was a double winner at the RTS Northern Ireland Student Television Awards. He was part of the team that won the Comedy and Entertainment award for Real Lads of Lockdown – and the writer/director also took home the Craft Skills: Writing prize.

The judges said the film “wasn’t afraid to touch on the more serious aspects of the pandemic, while providing lots of laugh-out-loud moments – a great balance of comedy and pathos”.
