The Orange British Academy Film AwardsThe Orange British Academy Film Awards – also known as the BAFTAs – take place this Sunday and it is the showpiece event of the UK film calendar.

Amanda Berry is the chief executive of BAFTA and I recently spoke to her about: the awards event; the changes she has made since the late 90s; how it fits in to the awards season; how the nomination process works, what the BAFTA organisation does around the year; and the films up for nomination.

Loved your attitude on the interview you placed on the web, good on you Amanda!

Spoke with your sister Jackie today via the 4 networking group here in Richmond north yorkshire and she told me about your well deserved career so had to look you up on the net. Well done to you Amanda again I take my hat off to you!
