Chris O’Dowd at has been awarded with a BAFTA at the BAFTA Children and Young People awards.
The Boyle native has been named as the winner in the Performer category for 'Here We Are: Notes for Living on Planet Earth.'
The animated story is centred around a precocious 7-year-old Finn who, over the course of Earth Day, learns about the wonders of the planet from his parents and from a mysterious exhibit at the aptly titled Museum of Everything. O’Dowd does the voice of Finn’s Dad, while Meryl Streep narrates and Ruth Negga does the voice of Finn’s Mum.
The awards ceremony is a celebration of UK and international content for children and young people spanning film, games and television, and was hosted by TV and radio presenter Lindsey Russell.
