Guy BurnetHollyoaks honored by Stonewall Are you sitting down? It's been long, long over due, but at last Hollyoaks has finally won an award! The show was a worthy winner at the 2007 Stonewall Awards, having been named Broadcast of the Year, thanks to its sensitive depiction of the gay love affair between teenagers John Paul McQueen (James Sutton) and Craig Dean (Guy Burnet).
Other winners included openly gay international rugby referee Nigel Owens for Sports Personality of the Year; and former secretary of the Homosexual Law Reform Society, Antony Grey bagged the award for Hero of the Year. The Stonewall & Barclays Community Group of the Year award went to the London Lesbian and Gay Switchboard. Villain of the evening was the Bishop of Hereford, Anthony Priddis, who was crowned Bigot of the Year, after an employment tribunal found the Bishop unlawfully withdrew a job offer to a gay youth worker after subjecting him to humiliating personal questioning.
