Netflix’s The Crown, another Emmy favorite, won sound and cinematography prizes. BBC’s Blue Planet II, Chris Packham: Asperger’s and Me, and World War One Remembered: Passchendaele also came away winners with three awards apiece.

Another triple winner was the BBC drama Three Girls. The true-life drama won for directing, editing and writing.
