After five years on air Game Of Thrones has been
named the best television drama series at the
Emmy Awards in Los Angeles.
The fantasy series, which airs on Sky Atlantic in
the UK, won some of the top awards of the night
after being nominated for a huge 24 prizes.
The show also took home awards for writing,
directing and for supporting actor, Peter Dinklage.
Last week it won eight Creative Emmys.
Dinklage embraced his co-star Lena Headey before
collecting his statuette and told the packed crowd
in the Microsoft Theatre: "I was chewing gum, I
wasn't prepared because the other actors in my
category awe me with their performances."
"Thank you HBO for believing in dragons," co-
creator David Benioff said after receiving the
drama prize from Tracey Morgan.
Morgan, who was critically injured in a car crash
last year, received a standing ovation after his
surprise appearance.
