Australia’s best and brightest television stars have zipped up their finery and taken to Sydney’s The Star Casino for the small screen’s night of nights, which has roped Robert Irwin in for a seemingly impossible mission: making the 66th TV Week Logie Awards cool to the TikTok generation.

Whether he succeeds in his task remains to be seen, but Peking Duk’s Reuben Styles let slip one strategy the 22-year-old Wildlife Warrior might try – and it’s not ripping his shirt off à la Dancing with the Stars US.

“We’re performing tonight, and we’ve got Robert Irwin doing the worm on stage, which feels damn good,” Styles told this masthead on the red carpet.

He also let slip a secret Irwin told him while they were rehearsing – yes, he’s channelling his late father Steve Irwin and will “probably put a snake on someone”.

Irwin takes over the gig from three-time host Sam Pang, who, like Irwin, is nominated for a Gold Logie. Read on for the full list of winners and nominees for the 66th TV Week Logie Awards, which will be updated tonight as they’re announced.
