KIN: Bhuaigh dráma coireachta RTÉ go mór ag IFTA’s By RTÉ Lárionad Meán Cumarsáide RTÉ Chuir dráma gangster RTÉ, Kin, sé bhua iontach i málaí tráthnóna ag Gradaim Scannán agus Drámaíochta Acadamh Scannán agus Teilifíse na hÉireann (IFTA) 2022. Bhuaigh an dráma, a craoladh ar RTÉ anuraidh, an duais don tsraith drámaíochta is fearr, an script is fearr (Peter McKenna), agus sna ceithre phríomhghradam aisteoireachta agus tacaíochta (Clare Dunne, Maria Doyle Kennedy, Ciarán Hinds, agus Sam Keeley) Bhuail sraith a haon le lucht féachana agus criticeoirí araon, agus bhí meán comhdhlúite de níos mó ná 621,000 duine ag lucht féachana ar RTÉ One agus go dtí seo bhí 2.7 milliún sruth ar RTÉ Player, rud a fhágann gurb é Kin an dráma is rathúla in Éirinn anuraidh. Gach seachtain chuaigh an lucht féachana i ngleic le teaghlach Kinsella a réiteach. Is é BRON Studios agus Headline Pictures, i gcomhar le RTÉ, a léirigh Kin. Fógraíodh le déanaí go rachadh sraith a dó de Kin i dtáirgeadh an samhradh seo. Dúirt Jim Jennings, Stiúrthóir Ábhair RTÉ: ‘Comhghairdeas mór leis na léiritheoirí, stiúrthóirí, aisteoirí agus criúnna a chruthaigh agus a mhúnlaigh Kin i ndráma fíor-láidir agus a bhuail an lucht féachana mór do RTÉ. Is léiriú é an líon mór dámhachtainí a bhuaigh Kin ar thallann agus ar phaisean na foirne suntasaí seo agus tá lúcháir orainn go bhfuair siad an t-aitheantas seo ón tionscal.’ Ba bhliain an-láidir í anuraidh do dhrámaí rté a d’fhás sa bhaile. In éineacht le Kin, Hidden Assets agus Smother, an dá amas lucht féachana freisin, do dhámhachtainí IFTA freisin. Aithníonn an searmanas bronnta bliantúil an chuid is fearr de thallann agus léiriú scáileáin na hÉireann ar fud na príomhscannáin, na drámaíochta teilifíse, na gné-chláir faisnéise, an ghnímh bheo gearr agus na beochana. Mar gheall ar an tacaíocht a thug RTÉ do dhaoine cumasacha agus do dhaoine cruthaitheacha na hÉireann, craoladh breis agus 40 uair an chloig de dhrámaíocht na hÉireann ar RTÉ anuraidh amháin. Cinntíonn ár dtiomantas don drámaíocht go bhfuil an tionscal cruthaitheach á chur chun cinn, agus ag an am céanna cuirtear drámaíocht Ardchaighdeáin Éireannach ar fáil do lucht féachana áitiúil agus domhanda.
