A Christian IPTV Channel has won a prestigious award just six months after it's launch. The Christian Broadcasting Council presented Premier.tv with the gold award for the most innovative Christian webcast at a ceremony in Essex last week.

Premier's TV Programme Controller, Kristie Winsten commented, "We've received a great deal of support during our first six months from both our contributors and contemporaries, with their help and a lot of hard work Premier has created an amazing resource for Christians across the world."

The IPTV station has recently received acclaim for securing a UK exclusive interview with Nooma creator and spiritual thinker, Rob Bell and the first British interview with Catherine Hardwicke, Director of The Nativity Story.

Both interviews were filmed and produced in-house at Premier's purpose built TV studio in London and added to the 500 programmes available to view on Premier.tv at all times.
