91Èȱ¬

It's been announced that Stephen Fry has won this year's award, as awarded by the leading mental health charity , for last year's 91Èȱ¬ documentary The Secret Life of the Manic Depressive (check out the official site for lots of accompanying info and short films).

Notably, this was the first time that the awards had been made open to the public, allowing them to nominate, via Mind's website, for the person they thought had made the most significant contribution towards challenging discrimination against people with mental health problems over the past year. Ouch readers on the messageboard seemed, in the majority, to approve of the two-part series as well.
