Occupation, the BBC Iraq war drama produced by Kudos, has won the Prix Europa for the best episode of a drama series or serial.
It was the only UK entry to scoop an award at the ceremony in Berlin on Saturday night, although Ruby Films co-pro Five Minutes of Heaven and Panorama: Britains Homecare Scandal both won special commendations.
The Prix Europa has been running for 23 years, and aims to recognise the continents best output and encourage debate between broadcasting creatives of all disciplines.
Held in Berlin, it is judged by an 'open jury' system, whereby self-elected panels cast votes after watching and debating a week's worth of films.
