Just one female, Jessica Marais, is nominated for the Gold Logie award this year.

The Love Child / Wrong Girl star has to fend off competition from Grant Denyer, Peter Helliar, Waleed Aly, Rodger Corser and Samuel Johnson for this year’s Gold.

The Project‘s push for Peter Helliar to be nominated for Gold have paid off, but it has come at the expense of Carrie Bickmore -out of contention for the top gong. She is still in the running for Silver as Best Presenter.

But the Gold is less diverse this year than 2016, when a campaign for Lee Lin Chin netted a Gold nomination.

Best Drama is a fight between 800 Words, Doctor Doctor, Home And Away, Molly, Offspring and Wentworth. But in the jury voted Most Outstanding Drama it is down to A Place To Call Home, Cleverman, Rake, The Code and Wentworth.

ABC leads with the most nominations, while TEN leads in the “viewer voted” categories.

The 2017 Logie Awards will be held at Crown on Sunday April 23 and screen on Nine.
