00:19Live on Columns, the Australian Television Network proudly presents, the 31st Annual TV Week Logie Awards!
00:35Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Lorraine Desmond.
00:39You're looking at a lady who has taken home the gold.
00:53Excuse me if I'm blowing my own horn.
00:59And I got my little logie in a loving stranglehold.
01:05Before half the cast of Home and Away were born.
01:12Yes, I was styly and vogue-ish.
01:17Before the whole world went Kylie Minogue-ish.
01:25And before they invented Cherl.
01:31This kid was a golden girl.
01:471961 was a simply wonderful year.
01:531961, a highlight of my career.
01:59My cleavage showing, my blonde hair coiffed.
02:01I scared the hell out of Colin Crump.
02:04It was ABC, but quite well done when I took home the gold.
02:09Back in 1961.
02:161966, I was really hitting my stride.
02:221966, my bosom bursting with pride.
02:27I hosted Girl Talk and sang with Don.
02:30And got to do every telethon.
02:33In the swimming pool, I got my kicks when I took home the gold.
02:38Back in 1966.
02:451973 was my year of logie success.
02:50In 1973, Australia knew my address.
02:5696 was the best of joints where Abigail showed her finer points.
03:01But they went and gave the gong to me.
03:04Yes, I took home that gold.
03:06Back in 1973.
03:12Golden girls don't need to worry.
03:17Gold won't tarnish in a hurry.
03:21Keep your diamonds and your pearls.
03:25These red-hot mothers.
03:31Glad to be golden girls.
03:411974 was my golden logie debut.
03:46And 1975, well beat that girls, I got two.
03:52I sang with Ernie and sounded crook.
03:55They dressed me up like a pregnant chook.
03:58I got through all those days alive and I took home the gold.
04:03Back in 1974.
04:101976, when they made me number one choice.
04:151976, you could strip the paint with my voice.
04:21The critics thought it was all a gag.
04:24John Michael Harrison dressed in drag.
04:27But I showed those darling clever dicks when I took home the gold.
04:31Back in 1976.
04:411984, and I knocked the rest of them flat.
04:471984 was the Aussie year of the rat.
04:53Even now, there's an itchiness to get back into the bitchiness.
05:00Slap places as in days of yore when I took home the gold.
05:04Back in 1984.
05:10Golden girls, we ain't old for this.
05:14When we're down, we shine those logies for our next hit.
05:20And for those girls, I do can bet.
05:27There's life in a jet.
05:31Hot, red, hot mothers are glad to be golden girls.
06:01Before our girls start to loosen, let us do some introducing.
06:16Sit up straight and be alert.
06:19Here's that golden boy himself.
06:21Ladies and gents, here's Bird.
