NEWS: AFGHANISTAN: THE GREAT GAME, a personal view by Rory Stewart wins BAFTA Scotland Award for Best Factual Series. The Observer: This intelligent two-part film is the television highlight of the week, a superlative history of Afghanistan through the eyes of author, former Black Watch officer and diplomat Rory Stewart MP. He explains how one of the most isolated and barren nations on Earth might seem a strange place for a superpower to invade, but how it became an enduring obsession for Britain, Russia and latterly America … Worthy of an award.
