(From Guardian Unlimited)
The Times was the big winner at last night's British Press Awards as it collected the coveted title of national newspaper of the year, along with two other awards.
The Mail on Sunday and the Guardian each claimed four prizes.
Times editor James Harding was presented the top award by Liberal Democrat deputy leader Vince Cable at the Grosvenor House Hotel event in London yesterday.
Judges praised the paper's "All round excellence" particularly the depth of its foreign coverage, adding that the paper had been "miraculously transformed" under Harding's leadership.
Harding said the award was "humbling".
"I would just like to say, without indulging my inner Kate Winslett, thank you very much indeed," Harding told the gathered members of the national press.
