Looking at the results and cats there it seems that Stanley was the only non ped/pet ped kitten there so I would say that he was awarded BIS HP Kitten. What happens usually is that the shows ask the judges to pick a BIS Non-Ped Adult, a BIS Non-Ped Kitten, a BIS Pet-Ped Adult and, a BIS Pet-Ped Kitten, then to choose ONE Overall BIS from the 4 (if all 4 are present). OR they just pick an overall BIS Adult from both sections and BIS Kitten from both sections then an Overall BIS from the two, some, like the Yorkshire have all 4 BIS awards then an Overall Non-Ped and an Overall Pet-Ped rather than the 2 competing."Our" South Ribble show, where we had Adult, Kitten & Junior in both sections is different as we are a solely non-ped show so can go the extra mile :-)

I suspect that on Saturday either Alfred was the Non-Ped Adult, there was no Non-Ped Kitten, one of the Pet-Ped Adults was BIS Pet-Ped Adult and Stanley was BIS Pet-Ped Kitten then Alfred was BIS Overall or else they just picked one of each Adult & Kitten, Alfred was BIS Non/Pet-Ped Adult and Stanley was BIS Non/Pet-Ped Kitten. Either way, Alfred got the Overall BIS and, as usually happens, no further mention is made of any of the others - again, unlike "our" show where they all get a "posh pen"!

As for going up against the pedigrees, no, there are 2 distinct and seperate BIS, one each for the pedigree and non/pet pedigree sections and ne'er the twain shall meet!!! (Well, they did once, several years ago, and a judge made history - and got everyone into a lot of bother ;-) - by picking the HP as the Overall BIS!!! Actually, that was Alfred too LOL).
