Gemini Nominations

Oct 26, 2002

by Catherine Barr

THE 17th Annual Gemini Awards, which honour the best in Canadian cinema and television, are being handed out in Toronto on Nov. 2, 3, and 4 by the Academy of Canadian Cinema and Television. They can best be described as this country's Emmy awards so, as they say, it is a big deal just to be nominated. This year, those of us out west have a lot to be excited about because a record breaking 199 "westerners" were given the nod of approval and are now waiting for the words . . . "the envelope please". On Sat Oct 26, the Gemini Nominee Reception was held at the Westin Bayshore and a lot of familiar faces from the Shore were there to be recognized before flying out east for the big night.

	Actor Gary Chalk (best supporting actor in a drama) and producer Gigi Boyd (best drama series) are nominated for their work on Cold Squad.
	North Van news producer Margo Harper and senior director Charles Wright are nominated for Best Newscast for CTV News at Six.
	North Van's Donelly Rhodes, seen here with son Westerly, is nominated for best actor in a drama for his work on Da Vinci's Inquest.

	Global National executive producer George Browne (a long-time North Shore resident), said the paint wasn't even dry in the newsroom when the 9/11 disaster hit. "We stayed on the air for 36 hours," he said, which earned him a Gemini nod for best news special event coverage.
	Director/producer Derik Murray and producer John Hamilton are being honoured for their work on Legends of Hockey.
	With too many credit to his name to mention, Walter Daroshin, seen here with wife Tina Thorndycraft, is an industry mogul who happily calls the North Shore home.
	Wearing fashions from Marilyn's were Cynthia Ott (left) and Karen Rapp who are nominated for Vicki Gabereau in the best talk series category.
	Guest actress nominee and show host Ellie Harvie is always seen with WV's Saltaire restaurant owner (and fiance) Rob Ward.
	Producing a winner. Elaine McKay (left), Doriana Temolo and Gillian Robinson are the beauty and the brains behind Global National.
	CTV news director Tom Walters and weather gal Tamara Taggart are a big part of the success behind the nominated CTV News at Six.
