The UK edition of ‘The Masked Singer’, comedy ‘Call My Agent’ and drama ‘Tehran’ were among the top winners at the International Emmy Awards held at the Casa Cipriani in New York City on Monday night.
As per Variety, David Tennant took the trophy for best actor for his work as a deceptively meek serial killer in ITV’s ‘Des’. Hayley Squires won for best actress for her role as a happily well-adjusted porn star in ‘Adult Material’. Israeli drama ‘Tehran’, about a female Mossad agent who goes undercover in Iran, won the top drama series prize. Season 4 of ‘Call My Agent’, set among agents at a Paris talent rep firm, took the prize for comedy.
The ITV rendition of ‘Masked Singer’ prevailed in the nonscripted entertainment category. Netflix’s ‘Hope Frozen: A Quest to Live Twice’ took the documentary award, marking the first International Emmy honour for a program from Thailand.
