Sluggin' It Out at W5
The Slugger O'Toole Awards event was held in Belfast's W5 centre on 7 October 2008.
This is the first glittering and glamorous Slugger Awards and almost all of the politicos, digicenti, blogerati of any note and general hangers-on are gathered for what would have been a Red Carpet Reception. But Red, like Blue, like Green, Orange and even Yellow have political connotations, so the carpet was ignored and we all just had a night on the tiles.

The commission set up just over a year ago by First Minister Alex Salmond said that Scotland needed a publicly funded digital channel on the same lines as the Welsh-language channel S4C. Acting chairman of the NI Screen Rick Hill reflects on whether a Digital Channel for Scotland a realistic idea.
