The biggest accolade at the Society of Editors Press Awards 2015, National Newspaper of the Year, was awarded to the Mail on Sunday.

The judges said of the title: "It continues to be a great product that produces landmark stories...It is always entertaining with hard-hitting exclusives and fantastic columnists. It is guaranteed to produce a marmalade-dropper."

The Sunday title also took home the Scoop of the Year award, while The Independent won the special Chairman's Award.

Chairman of judges Bob Satchwell said: "The Indie was a brave innovation, as was its sister Sunday.

"The i proved so many soothsayers wrong. Five years on it has proved something of a driving force. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery especially when some have dispatched print into the history books. Let’s hope the i‘s success is mirrored elsewhere."
