<p>The King&#8217;s Speech has claimed the crown for best film at the Producers Guild of America Awards, beating Golden Globes best drama winner and presumed Oscar front-runner The Social Network.</p>
<p>The PGA awards, hosted by filmmaker Judd Apatow at the Beverly Hilton, are part of the steady stream of ceremonies leading up to the Academy Awards.</p>
<p>The Social Network, which stars Jesse Eisenberg as Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, appeared to be on the fast track to a best picture Oscar after dominating honours from top critics groups and winning the Golden Globe last week.</p>
<p>But the latest win solidified a spot as an Academy Award contender for The King&#8217;s Speech, which features Golden Globe best actor winner Colin Firth playing Queen Elizabeth II&#8217;s father, George VI, as he tries to overcome a debilitating stammer.</p>
<p>The Producers Guild followed the lead of the Oscars last year and doubled its best-picture field to 10 movies.</p>
<p>In other PGA categories, Pixar&#8217;s Toy Story 3 won for best animated feature and the chronicle of modern education Waiting For Superman took top documentary honours.</p>
<p>On the television side, AMC&#8217;s Mad Men won for best drama series for the third straight year, and ABC&#8217;s Modern Family won best comedy, beating previous two-time winner 30 Rock.</p>
<p>HBO&#8217;s The Pacific won for best TV movie or miniseries, and Comedy Central&#8217;s The Colbert Report won for top live entertainment or reality show.</p>
