The Sarnies 2013: The results!
The Sarnies Awards presentations night in February 2014 was the usual potpourri of glamour, laughter and tears as Wayne Sheridan, Jessica-Ann Jenner & Co.’s herculean efforts in putting the show together paid off spectacularly! Hosted this year by the suave Howard Binysh, there was a strong Doctor Who theme to the evening – complete with onstage Tardis. Highlights include a miniature Snoopy: The Musical, with set desigher extraordinaire Tony Jenner playing the part of the eponymous beagle and a rare appearance by grand dame, Christine Spragg. Well done guys and a big thank you from all of us!
