Trophy women

This has been the year of the big push for more women presenters in British broadcasting - in front of the mike and the camera. And in radio, Sound Women has been lobbying for more women to enter for the Sony Radio Awards.  The Radio Academy responded with more female judges than ever before.

Let's peruse the women who've featured in the nominations revealed today.  I haven't considered all the categories, especially those that require obvious team work - but of 85 potential nomination slots where gender is perhaps a consideration, I've found women in 21 of them (compared with 13 in the same categories nominated in 2011).  Please correct me if I've missed the obvious....

Best Breakfast show: nominees include 5Live, where Rachel Burden is now paired with Nicky Campbell; Heart, where Harriet Scott shares the mike with Jamie Theakston, and Kiss, where Charlie Hedges works with Melvin and Ricky.  2011 - One female featured.
