Sheridan Smith Nominated For Royal Television Society Award

Film, TV and theatre star Sheridan Smith is up for Best Actress at this year's Royal Television Society (RTS) Programme Awards. She faces stiff competition from "Accused II" stars Anne Marie Duff and Olivia Colman for the coveted prize.

Sheridan's career has gone from strength to strength in the past couple of years and she is constantly in work on good quality entertainment projects. The RTS nomination is for her portrayal of Charmian Biggs (wife of Great Train Robber Ronnie) in the acclaimed ITV series Mrs Biggs, in which she is pictured here.

The awards will be presented on March 19th at a ceremony held at the Grosvenor Hotel in London.
