A graduate from Sidcup's Rose Bruford college has won a Royal Television Society award.

Stephen Graham won the Best Actor award on Tuesday night for his performance as Detective Superintendent Dave Kelly in Little Boy Blue.

The four-part series which aired last spring told the story of Rhys Jones, the ten year Everton fan who was shot dead outside his house in Liverpool in 2007.

Graham, 44, tweeted his thanks for the award saying he felt "incredibly honoured" to be named best actor and commended his co-star, Sinead Keenan, for her performance.

He added: "Thanks for all your kind messages of support too #LBB"
