Colin From Accounts, BINGE’s premier original comedy, stood out at the 63rd Annual TV Week Logie Awards, equalling Foxtel Group’s original, The Twelve, by scooping up three awards.
This achievement marks a significant milestone for streaming services in Australia, with Colin From Accounts becoming the first to clinch the Most Outstanding Comedy Program.
Stars and creators of the show, Patrick Brammall and Harriet Dyer, further bolstered this winning streak by securing Most Outstanding Actor and Actress awards respectively.
Since its premiere, this eight-part series has been a record-setter, evolving into the most-watched original scripted series ever for the Foxtel Group. Its universal appeal has seen it being sold to various territories globally, garnering international acclaim most recently from the BBC.
Prior to the awards, Patrick Brammall and Harriet Dyer teased an upcoming second-season announcement for the hugely popular comedy in a red-carpet interview with Steve Molk.
An ecstatic Brammall and Dyer shared their sentiments,
“You don’t grow up in Australia thinking you will win a Logie. We are beyond pumped to have won this award and it means the world to be recognised with these awards, especially in your home country.”
Alison Hubert-Burns, BINGE’s Executive Director, expressed her delight, saying,
“We are thrilled to see Colin from Accounts recognised at tonight’s Logie Awards… It was a joy to make this series with the incredibly talented Patrick and Harriet, and our producing partners at Easy Tiger and CBS Studios.”
She nostalgically added,
“It was in the lockdown days of Covid when Brian Walsh and I first read the scripts, laughed out loud and made it our mission to get the show made. We are thrilled it has connected so strongly with audiences here and around the world.”
