Patricia Cornwell, who selected the piece from a shortlist of 6, said: 'I think The Transfer Tube is a fine piece of work that really captures the essence of my book and shows a great deal of imagination and flair.'

Jamie says: 'The credibility of being recognised by experienced professionals means so much to me. It's more important than money, though I'm excited that the prize will help me complete the feature film I've been writing.'

Graham Fink, Creative Director of M&C Saatchi and one of the judges, commented, 'The lighting is superb...it reminded me a bit of the title sequence of 'Se7en', which, on a budget probably a hundred times smaller, is no mean feat...'

HYPtv, along with publishers, Little, Brown, would like to thank everyone who entered. For details of the shortlisted entries, and further acknowledgements, please go to 'The Final Shortlist'.

'Patricia's work stimulated a fantastic response with over 200 entries submitted, of a high standard. They showed what huge talent and enthusiasm for creativity there is out there. Jamie created an atmospheric and highly stylized vignette, which will create considerable impact.' David Cook, HYPtv Programme Director
