AND the winner is...Niv Adiri’s success at Hollywood’s most prestigious and over-the-top awards ceremony is a huge boost for film-makers and those involved in the industry.

People in Wheatley, where he lives, have also hailed the news.

And yet anyone watching the outcome this morning on television would have been forgiven for not noticing anything about his and his team’s victory.

Gongs for best film, best actor and best actress get all the coverage – and those behind the scenes miss out on some of the glory.

But the films showered with garlands each year at the Academy Awards would never be made if it was not for those like Mr Adiri working behind the scenes.
