I have been nominated for 18 Radio Academy Awards, including:
UK’S BEST LOCAL RADIO SHOW
ARIA GOLD AWARD 2021
The judges said “This is a radio show of the highest standard with impeccable journalistic quality. Focusing much of the entry on one story demonstrated the calibre of reporting and broadcasting which made this a unanimous decision. There was a calmness in telling a difficult story which had clearly had an impact on the people of Reading and the programme managed to convey shock and emotion in a considered manner. There were also lighter moments which perfectly reflected the community it serves and the weird times we’ve all lived through.”
UK’s Best Speech Presenter at Breakfast
ARIA nomination 2018
UK Breakfast Show of the Year
Bronze Sony Award 2013
The judges said “Andrew Peach's interviews are the strongest in this breakfast category. He is empathetic and probing and formulates questions that are short, to the point, and perfectly timed.”
UK Speech Broadcaster of the Year
Sony Award nomination 2010
The judges said “An assured host, balancing great seriousness and warmth, and displaying a strong bond with his audience.”
UK News and Current Affairs Programme of the Year
Sony Award nomination 2010
The judges said “The strong local nature of this programme left the judges in no doubt that it is very much part of Berkshire life and there was a real sense that the programme is on the side of real people in Berkshire. The host's mature and sympathetic presentation style is a big part of the programme’s success.”
UK Breakfast Show of the Year
Bronze Sony Award 2010
The judges said “Consistently high quality in delivery and production. Andrew Peach really 'owns' the show on behalf of his listeners and is able to move between very different subjects.”
Interview of the Year
Sony Award nomination 2009
The judges said “This entry captured a mood and moment brilliantly. It was perfect for its local target audience but more importantly it had perfect timing just after Reading FC’s relegation. Andrew Peach allowed Captain Graeme Murty to tell the story, giving him space for reflection and raw emotion, without sentiment.”
