All ducks were put in a row, hands on the plough to get the 70th edition of primetime Emmy Awards going, and it went down last night at Microsoft theatre, Los Angeles, California, USA. The awards recognized and honoured excellence in US primetime television programming.
Did you know: In 1948, the founding fathers named the awards "Immy," a sobriquet for the image-orthicon camera tube. "Immy" was then feminized to "Emmy".
