“All the people that come together to create ‘Lego Masters’. My beautiful wife, this is – you don’t get to stand up here unless you have amazing people behind you. You’re the most amazing of people.

“It has been a really weird last couple of years for the TV industry. Really tough. I know I speak on behalf of everybody here when I say we’re so grateful to do what we do in this room. We know we’re super lucky to keep working and to get to keep working and do what we love.

“We couldn’t do it without the people that are watching at home. If you are watching at home. If you are watching this, you’re an insomniac, but you are also somebody that supports Australian TV and we would not be here without you.”
