Royal Television Society Programme Awards 2023: Kate Winslet wins Leading Actress while Claudia Winkleman picks up Entertainment Performance gong for The Traitors
Kate Winslet and Claudia Winkleman were some of the successful stars picking up gongs at the Royal Television Society Programme Awards 2023 on Tuesday night.
Actress Kate, 47, scooped the Leading Actress award for her role in Channel 4’s one-off feature length drama I Am Ruth.
She beat Billie Piper (I Hate Suzie Too) and Monica Dolan (The Thief, His Wife and the Canoe) in the category.
Kate chose to skip the red carpet but proudly posed with her award afterwards and looked as stylish as ever in a black cut-out dress.
I am Ruth followed Ruth, a loving and concerned mother, witnessing her teenage daughter Freya retreating into herself as she becomes more and more consumed by the pressures of social media.

‘2023 was another year of attention grabbing, thought provoking, world class television.
