The UK Adult Film and Television Awards (UKAFTAs) were an annual awards ceremony for the UK adult industry. Redzone Pictures and the UK Adult Producers Trade Association organised the awards to promote the industry in the UK.[1] The inaugural awards show was held on 17 November 2006 at the Hammersmith Palais, London and was hosted by porn actor and director Ben Dover.[2] There were around thirty award categories, honouring performance, production, and technical achievements in film, television, and the Internet. Notable award nominees included the TV series The Secret Diary of a Call Girl, starring Billie Piper, which was nominated for "Best Soft Core Production" at the 29 November 2007 Awards.[3][4][5]

The 2008 Awards were held at the Troxy, London on 20 November 2008 and were hosted by the actress Kate Robbins.[6] The 2008 awards were the last to be held, with one commentator, in 2013, attributing the award's demise to insufficient financial backing or bad planning and promotion.[7]
