Nebula Award winners 2020: BBC cancel awards video on YouTube (awards news).

The Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America has released the winners of their 55th Nebula Awards.

This is normally where we would link to the ceremony proceedings on YouTube, but sadly the fuckwits at the BBC decided that the Nebula Awards awarding Good Omens the Best TV gong was worthy of a copyright strike, and the video has been cancelled (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8fTixQc410o) – this is as of 31st May 2020 at 9.00 am.

Hopefully, the video will be either let out of internet jail when the BBC realise this is not a good look for them, or possibly the Nebula crew will kindly re-release a ceremony video without any mention of Good Omens.

They say no good deed goes unpunished. Perhaps no good award goes unpunished, as well?

UPDATE: 1st June – the Awards Video is back online, copy-strike removed … looks like embarassing the BBC into playing nice actually worked!

Anyway, and the winners are …

A Song for a New Day, Sarah Pinsker (Berkley).
