The 72nd Primetime Emmy Awards honored the best in American prime time television programming from June 1, 2019, until May 31, 2020, as chosen by the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences.

It aired live on September 20, 2020, following the 72nd Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards on September 14–17 and 19. During the ceremony, Emmy Awards were handed out in 23 categories. At the main ceremony, Schitt's Creek won all seven comedy categories including Outstanding Comedy Series, becoming the first comedy series to complete a sweep of those categories. Succession and Watchmen each won four awards, including Outstanding Drama Series and Outstanding Limited Series, respectively. (Full list...)

St Lawrence Jewry

St Lawrence Jewry is a Church of England guild church in the City of London on Gresham Street, next to Guildhall. The medieval church was destroyed in the Great Fire of London in 1666, and rebuilt to a design by Sir Christopher Wren. The building suffered extensive damage on 29 December 1940, during the Blitz, and was restored in 1957 by Cecil Brown to Wren's original design. It is the official church of the Lord Mayor of London. Wren's church has an aisle only on the north side (in the left-hand side of this photograph), divided from the nave by Corinthian columns. The ceiling is divided into sunken panels, ornamented with wreaths and branches.
