What: Television X Soft and Hard Adult Film and Television Awards (SHAFTAs)
When: Thursday 15 March
Where: Platinum Lace Piccadilly Circus. London
(LONDON, UK) — The great and the good from the UK adult scene turned out in full force last night at the Shipwrecked themed third annual Television X (televisionx.com) SHAFTAs (Soft and Hard Adult Film and Television Awards.) The venue, Platinum Lace, was transformed into a deserted island Jungle and Tiki themed acts entertained the guests into the early hours of Friday morning.
Among the shipwrecked guests were grime superstar Lethal Bizzle who presented Best Sex Scene with porn superstar Syren Sexton, declaring “F**k the MOBOs”. East 17 member Terry Coldwell presented Best Series award with teacher turned porn producer Liselle Bailey. The night was topped off by Danny Dyer presenting Female Performer of the Year to Megan Coxxx with MILF of the Year Tanya Tate who he announced in true Dyer fashion as “A right sort.”
UK porn legend Ben Dover was presented with an Honorary Award “The Palm Phwoar!” for ‘endeavours in adult entertainment.’ The adult performer, real name Linsey Honey has been in the business for 33 years and after thanking Television X for the award, politely asked revelers to vote for his son, Outnumbered’s Tyger Drew Honey, who is in the final for this week’s Just Dance for Sport Relief.
After the ceremony the venue opened up to other industry performers and producers and culminated in a golden penis shaped Pinata being smashed to pieces by a bevy of models.
The Television X SHAFTA ceremony is the highlight of the British adult film calendar, being the only awards of their kind to allow public voting.
