It was announced today that Bernard Cribbins will be receiving a special award at this year’s British Academy Children’s Awards, for his years of outstanding creative contribution to the industry!

“It is truly an honour to receive this award from the British Academy,” said the veteran actor. “I have thoroughly enjoyed working with and for children throughout my career and am privileged to have been involved with some amazing projects.”

Cribbins is loved by Doctor Who fans for his portrayal of Wilfred Mott, and he’ll be back on our screens as Donna’s grandad this Christmas in The End of Time. He also played Tom Campbell in the 1966 movie, Daleks’ Invasion Earth: 2150 A.D. The ceremony is due to take place on Sunday 29th November, and he will be presented with the award by Catherine Tate. Congratulations, Bernard!
