There were high fives around The News Building as our titles dominated Tuesday night’s prestigious British Journalism Awards.

From a record 20 nominations across our three national newspapers, we landed five titles in the Press Gazette-organised awards held at the Stationers’ Hall in London.

There was a double triumph for The Sunday Times’ Insight editor Jonathan Calvert (pictured), who landed the blue ribbon Journalist of the Year gong for his work in exposing FIFA corruption and the blood doping scandal in athletics.

Along with colleagues George Arbuthnott and Bojan Pancevski, they landed the breaking news award for the best story of the year accolade for their FIFA coverage.

Calvert told the News UK intranet: “It was a fantastic honour to receive the award for Journalist of the Year last night. Lovely for me personally but I think it was really a recognition of all the work of the Insight team over the years.

“I have been fortunate to work alongside some of the best journalists in the country at Insight such as the brilliant Heidi Blake and before that Claire Newell. I am now lucky to have two great new colleagues: George Arbuthnott and David Collins, who are blazing a trail with their work exposing doping in athletics. It was an award for all of us.

“Also we were delighted to win the Breaking News award for our story in April on FIFA alongside our esteemed European correspondent Bojan Pancevski, who has done so much invaluable work for the Insight team over the years.”

The Sun political editor Tom Newton Dunn scooped the politics journalism gong for Plebgate: What really happened.

Plebgate involved Tory MP and former chief whip Andrew Mitchell calling police officers ‘plebs’ during a row in Downing Street in September 2012. Mitchell sued The Sun for libel for its subsequent coverage, but lost his High Court action against the paper.

Newton Dunn said: “It’s a great honour to win this, especially when the fellow nominees were of such high calibre. But the truth is I really feel I have just taken one for the team.

“Our legal department have been fantastic throughout the last three years, and three different editors of The Sun now – Dominic Mohan, David Dinsmore and Tony Gallagher – have backed the Plebgate story and its difficult aftermath to the hilt. I’m very grateful.”

Sun consumer editor Dan Jones won the business, finance and economics journalism prize for campaigns including ‘Compare the energy fat cats’, ‘You phonies’ and ‘The great stitch-up’.

Manu Brabo won the photojournalism category for his Ukraine coverage for The Sunday Times Magazine.
