Sally Fletcher’s character may have left Home and Away but the accolades continue for Kate Ritchie who departed our screen last month. After 20 years as Sally Fletcher it was time for Kate to close that chapter of her life and accept the challenges of the Sydney Breakfast radio market.
Kate won the 2008 TV Week Gold Logie presented by Bert Newton in what was a good Logies full of Todd McKenny jokes and cheap shots at Channel Nine.
Ritchie’s acceptance speech was understandably emotional thanking cast and crew, innocent, natural and thankful.
This years Logies had no host and it was proved that the event ran smoothly being ‘hostless’ with backstage entertainment provided by Hamish and Andy.
Stabs at Todd McKenny started with Peter Hellier and finished with Bert Newton who jokingly invited Gold Logie winner Kate Ritchie to Fitzroy with McKenny.
Hellier cleverly took the mickey out of the Underbelly DVD ban offering to sell copies for $10 including plus $2 for Monster House and The Power of 10 for free but Garry McDonald’s satire was a direct stab at Nine’s comedy department and the network in general.
Seven dominated the awards with 7 logies, the ABC with 5 while Nine, Ten and Foxtel took 2 and SBS 1 Logie.
The major award winners were
