IT’S LOGIE TIME – PLACE YOUR VOTES
It’s time to have your say before voting closes tomorrow for this year’s Logie Awards.
The 60th annual awards move to the Gold Coast and the new date of July 1. Here are my votes for the most popular categories: Most Popular Actor: Ewen Leslie
Between Top of the Lake and Safe Harbour, Leslie is producing some memorable dramatic performances. Most Popular Actress: Andrea Demetriades
I doubt she’ll win, but Demetriades deserves props for the sheer volume of her work across Janet King, Pulse, Seven Types of
Ambiguity and Squinters. Most Popular Presenter: Andrew Winter
How would Foxtel’s Lifestyle Channel get by without this cheeky Englishman? Winter (pictured) is key to the success of both Selling Houses and Love It or List It. Gold Logie: Lisa Wilkinson
She navigated her shock move from Nine to Ten with class and restraint amid the media storm. It’s nice to see her flex her journalistic might on The Project. Graham Kennedy Award for Most Popular New Talent: Alice Englert
Englert, the daughter of director Jane Campion, nearly stole the spotlight from Nicole Kidman in Top of The Lake. Most Popular Drama Program: Wentworth
Foxtel’s prison drama continues to
surprise. Pamela Rabe. Season five was a cracker thanks to Gogglebox Most Popular Australia Entertainment Program:
This show continues to keep its finger on the pulse of the nation. Most Popular Comedy Program: True Story with Hamish and Andy
This show was a surprise hit, and one that only this larrikin duo could have pulled off. Most Popular Reality Program: The Bachelorette Australia
I’ve got to give Sophie Monk this one; she made the other Bachelorettes seem boring. Most Popular Lifestyle Program: Love It or List It Australia
Neale Whitaker and Andrew Winter are a delightful odd couple, with Block judge Neale pulling off some stunning renovations.
