Dukes of Broxstonia - Series 3 has won Best Children’s Television Production at the 2013 Screen Producers Australia Awards held in Melbourne on 20 November.

The good news continues for Sticky Pictures with Dukes of Broxstonia (Series 3) recently nominated for Best Animated Series in the tweens/teens category at the Kidscreen Awards to be held in New York City in February 2014.  

Dukes 3 episode “Mojo”  has also received a nomination for Best Short Animation by the  Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts. The 3rd AACTA Awards will be held in Sydney in January 2014.
