Baku, November 23 (AZERTAC). Acting awards for Bob Hoskins and Helena Bonham Carter were among five prizes won by BBC productions at the International Emmys in New York.

Hoskins, 68, won best actor for his role in now defunct BBC One show The Street, which also won best drama.

Bonham Carter won best actress for an Enid Blyton biopic, Small Island won best mini-series and CBBC show Shaun The Sheep won the children`s award.

X Factor`s Simon Cowell won a special award for his TV and charity work.

"When I think back over 10 years, I can genuinely say I`ve had the best time I`ve ever had in my life," said Cowell, who was presented with his award by media mogul Rupert Murdoch.

Cowell, 51, who earlier this year quit as a judge of US talent show American Idol - aired on Murdoch-owned TV channel Fox - added: "Whoever said fame, money, success will destroy you is completely wrong."The Street, which ran for three series and also starred actors including Anna Friel, Matt Smith, Timothy Spall and Jim Broadbent, followed the lives of neighbours living on the same Manchester road.
